Both hydroelectric plants and nuclear power plants generate electricity by converting a source of energy into electrical power. They are both considered to be reliable sources of base-load power, meaning they can provide a continuous and consistent power output. Additionally, both types of plants have the potential to produce significant amounts of electricity and have a relatively low carbon footprint compared to fossil fuel power plants.
