Potential energy
In hydroelectric power station we use the potential energy of water to generate electricity.
Cruachan Power Station is a storage hydro-electric power station whereas a Normal Hydroelectric power station is produced and then used, no storage needed.
While a little rust from the turbines is released it is general considered a clean source of power.
In order for a hydroelectic power station to function, the station will need a large supply of water. The station will also require large generators with turbines in order to create power from the pressure of the water.
I believe it is a hydroelectric power station built on the Shannon River in 1927.
The ultimate source of energy in a hydroelectric power station is the gravitational potential energy of water. Water stored behind a dam has gravitational potential energy due to its elevation, which is converted to kinetic energy as it flows downhill through turbines, generating electricity in the process.
Hydroelectric power
In hydroelectric power station we use the potential energy of water to generate electricity.
The potential energy of water stored in a reservoir is converted into kinetic energy as it flows through turbines in a hydroelectric power station. The kinetic energy of the spinning turbines is then transformed into electrical energy by the generator connected to them.
Cruachan Power Station is a storage hydro-electric power station whereas a Normal Hydroelectric power station is produced and then used, no storage needed.

A different source of energy such as methane wind power and hydroelectric power
Walchensee Hydroelectric Power Station was created in 1924.
Hammeren Hydroelectric Power Station was created in 1900.
hydroelectric energy is energy that comes from water
Dams are a source of hydroelectric power that convert the energy of flowing water into electricity.
Depends on what kind of power station it is, can bea nuclear power plant, a coal-burning power plant, a wind turbine, or a hydroelectric power station.
