Water drives the turbines to generate hydroelectric power.
All use generators to produce electrical current
Electricity generated by water power alone is hydroelectric power.
Electrical power is generated by the wind. The wind turns turbines, the motion of which rotates wires inside magnets resulting in electrical current. This is very similar to the way hydroelectric turbines operate, in principle.
the turbines turn as a result of the flow of water
In many places in the world huge volumes of river water descend tens or hundreds of metres over falls. When this water reaches its lower level it can be used to drive turbines which in turn drive electrical generators. A plan to build a system of turbines and generators such as this is called a hydroelectric scheme.
Heat
The source is the water that spins the turbines
Hydroelectric power works by running water over the turbines of a power plant inside of a dam. The power of the rushing water turns the turbines and produces electricity.
flowing water to turn turbines
Hydroelectric ? Electricity generated by water going thru turbines.
They both use turbines
