How much money does it take to maintain a hydroelectric dam?
answ2. Hydroelectric dams are temporary features. They will eventually fill up with gravel and silt from the river. This is very expensive to remove.Otherwise the maintenance is things like removal of debris that may damage the turbines. The actual maintenance of turbines and generators is small - occasionally bearings need replacement and so on. Pretty minimal overall.Hydroelectricicity is expensive to install, but the annual running costs are very small.
Examples of industries that benefit from economies of scale?

What uses Hydroelectric power?
Hydroelectric power plants. They have dams and generators. Water flows through a dam, which spins generators that produce hydroelectric electricity. (Fun Fact: The Hoover Dam is the biggest hydroelectric power plant.)

Where does hydro energy come form?
Hydroelectric energy comes from the potential energy of water stored in dams or flowing in rivers. This energy is converted into electricity through turbines connected to generators in hydroelectric power stations.
What is One-fifth of California's electricity is generated from what type of source?
Hydroelectric generators
Is moving water used to power generators?
Yes that's hydroelectric power.
How do hydroelectric generators produce electricity?
When flowing water is run through the machines
Are fossil fuels burned in hydroelectric plants?
No. A hydroelectric plant uses falling water to turn water turbines attached to electric generators.
Is hydroelectric energy easy to collect or mine?
Hydroelectric energy is created by utilizing falling water. For large quantities it requires a dam and big generators.
Where does the energy for your TV come from?
From the electric plug. This, in turn, comes from some generators, which may run on coal, diesel, nuclear power, wind energy, hydroelectric energy, etc.
How does hydroelectric energy move through the system?
Hydroelectric power flows out of the generators and gets stepped up to transmission levels for transportation to the towns and cities where it is consumed. Once the hydroelectric power reaches the transmission system, it joins power provided from fossil fuel, nuclear, wind, and solar power generators on its way to metropolitan areas.
