There are a number of methods used to generate electric power. One is the application of moving (falling) water, and that's hydroelectric power. Another might be the burning of coal to heat and boil water to make steam. The steam is used to spin steam turbines and turn electric generators. Certainly there are other methods available to us to generate electricity, like using the heat generated by a nuclear reactor to boil that water and make the steam that spins a turbine and generator. Wind power and solar power are also used commercially. And there are others in use.
