hydro power is practically always constant wind power might not be there at all sometimes and it could be a load as opposed to a source.

Both use the flow of water generate electricity. Hydroelectric uses the flow of water from a high point to a low point. (A damn). Tidal power uses the flow of ocean tides in and out.
Along rivers or streams, at the foot of hills and mountains with ponds or lakes, and at the mouths of bays and inlets where there are tides. Hydroelectric plants operate on the basis of gravity moving water downward. So the requirement for hydroelectric power is water and a difference in height, altitude or depth. Most Hydroelectric plants are located on rivers and used dams to provide the difference in height. In some cases, hydro plants have been built at the foots of hills or mountains that had lakes on them at higher levels. If the difference in altitude is sufficient, a small flow and a small power plant can produce an impressive amount of power. It is possible to get hydroelectric power from the movement of water without a dam, and this is done in rivers with sufficient current, but where damming the river would be too destructive to the land or things on the land. It is also done in places with tidal flows that are sufficiently energetic. Micro-hydroelectric sites can even be small streams, if the water flow is sufficiently reliable.
No nuclear ones, apart from Bataan which has never operated
when water fiows from water resource then potential energy converts into kinetic energy. due to this water rotates to the turbines and conversion of kinetic energy into mechanical takes place . the shaft of turbine is connected to generator and in turbine due to rotation magnetic flux takesplace and electricity is produced.

No. A hydroelectric plant uses falling water to turn water turbines attached to electric generators.
Both hydroelectric and coal power plants generate electricity by turning turbines to produce mechanical energy. Additionally, they both involve heating water to create steam to drive the turbines. However, their primary difference lies in the energy sources used—hydroelectric plants harness the power of water flow, whereas coal plants burn coal to generate electricity.
All use generators to produce electrical current
Turbines spin due to the force of a moving fluid, such as wind or water, causing the blades to rotate. This rotation is then converted into mechanical energy that can be used to generate electricity in wind turbines or hydroelectric plants.
Turbines. These are then used to spin magnets next to wires. This generates electricity.

Energy is lost in hydroelectric power generation through factors such as friction in turbines, resistance in transmission lines, and inefficiencies in the conversion of kinetic energy into electrical energy. These losses reduce the overall efficiency of hydroelectric power plants.
With a pumping station, they use pumps to perform a function with a liquid. This might include moving drinkable water or sewage up hill, for example. A hydroelectric plant uses water flowing downwards to turn turbines to produce electricity. Some hydroelectric plants have pumping stations that move water up hill into holding facilities from which it is released to turn additional turbines during periods of high demand for electricity.
The energy produced by flowing water is called hydroelectric energy. It is generated by harnessing the kinetic energy of moving water and converting it into electricity using turbines and generators in hydroelectric power plants.
