It isn't "caused" by anything. Water goes through a dam and turns a turbine.

That turbine creates electricity. Not exactly rocket science.

The phrase "hydroelectric power" refers to the technology of intercepting some of

the kinetic energy of falling water and converting it to electrical energy. Wherever

the process is in use, it's caused by human engineering.
