Best Answer

Any energy source that generates electricity can be used to run an electricity pump for water. Without electricity, wind power, like a windmill, can be used to pump water, as it has done since the time of the Romans.

What was the driving force of water?

Generally when water is used as a source of energy it is either the kinetic energy of the flowing water or the potential energy of the water as it changed height that was used as the energy source. In both cases it is gravity that is the ultimate driving force that makes the water move (for kinetic energy) or is the source of the potential energy - which is recovered as the water moves from higher to lower.

What is a hydraulic ram used for?

A hydraulic ram is a cyclic water pump which utilises hydropower. It can be used as a low head hydropower source in order to generate electricity or it can be used to pump water from a low source to a higher destination. A hydraulic ram takes in water at one pressure and flow rate, and outputs it at a higher pressure and lower flow rate. It is sometimes used in remote areas where there is a source of low pressure and a need to pump water to a higher elevation than the source.
