Why Many hydroelectric plants are located in the peninsular plateau?
Many hydroelectric plants are located in the peninsular plateau of India due to its favorable topography, which includes numerous rivers and significant elevation changes that create ideal conditions for generating hydroelectric power. The region's rocky terrain and steep slopes facilitate the construction of dams and reservoirs, enhancing water flow and energy generation. Additionally, the plateau's abundant rainfall and river systems provide a consistent water supply crucial for hydroelectric operations.
How could power stations reduce the amount of carbon dioxide they produce?
There are many ways to generate electricity. Methods that burn fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) produce carbon dioxide. Methods using renewable energy do not. Nuclear power plants, although uranium in non-renewable, do not produce carbon dioxide. Power stations could be rebuilt to use different fuel sources. Biomass and biofuel will power a coal fired power station without emitting the carbon dioxide pollution.
How many stations are needed to locate an earthquake?
Typically, at least three seismic stations are needed to accurately locate an earthquake by using triangulation. The more stations that record the earthquake, the more accurate the determination of its location can be.
How many Kilowatts an hour does the Battersea power station output?
The Battersea power stations A & B were both decommissioned with A being taken offline in 1975 and B taking offline in 1983. Therefore, the number of kilowatts an hour they produce is zero.
How many water stations will be needed if water stations will be placed every 600 meters of a fifteen kilometers race?
Water station will be placed every 400 meters of a 5-kilometer race. How many water stations are needed?
How many geothermal power stations are in Britain?
There are currently no geothermal power stations operating in Britain, but some geothermal projects are being developed for the future.
Why do hydroelectric power stations have to be built in hilly areas?
I don't know about hilly areas (many stations are next to dams), but they have to be built where the water flows through the turbines by gravity (i.e., does not have to be pumped).
Is there electricity in Zambia?
There is electricity in much of the urban areas of Zambia. Hydro power is provided from the power stations at Kariba North, Victoria Falls and Kafue. Many rural parts of the country run on diesel power stations and many are now coming onto solar power.
What is Irelands water power?
Ireland has many rivers and can get power from them. Ardnacrusha is the most well known of the power stations generating Hydroelectric power. It is in Co. Clare, and harnesses the power of the river Shannon. Turlough Hill in Co. Wicklow is another well known one.
Why can't hydroelectric power stations be in some places?
You need: 1. large volume of water in a reservoir, 2. a reservoir at a good height above the turbines - many tens of metres.
