Hydro-power is the cleanest source of energy. It is powered by the force of flowing water which turns the generator to generate electricity. Considering the amount of CO2 released in the atmosphere and its consequential global warming effects, Hydro Power is considered safest, cleanliest and most favour form of generating power. Even the UNFCCC provides highest credit for Hydel Projects.
