Hydropower is generated by harnessing the energy of flowing or falling water, typically from rivers or reservoirs. The kinetic energy of the water is converted into mechanical energy using turbines, which then generates electricity through a generator. Factors such as elevation changes, water flow rates, and infrastructure like dams and water turbines contribute to the production of hydroelectric power. Its development has been driven by the need for renewable energy sources and the ability to provide consistent electricity.
