In a power station fuel is burnt to produce heat in the form of steam. This causes the turbine connected to a turbogenerator to spin resulting in the conversion of mechanical spinning energy to electrical energy, generating power.
In an oil power station, heat is generated by burning oil in a boiler to produce high-pressure steam. This steam is then used to drive a turbine connected to a generator, which converts the mechanical energy into electricity.
A hydro power station generates electricity by using flowing water to turn turbines connected to generators. Water is diverted from a river or reservoir and directed through pipes to the turbines, where the force of the flowing water spins them to create electricity. The electricity generated is then sent to the power grid for distribution.
The enormous fans in a power station are called cooling towers. These towers help dissipate excess heat generated during the power generation process to keep the system operating efficiently and prevent overheating.
The amount of power generated by a power plant depends on its size, type of fuel used, and operating conditions. In general, a typical power plant can generate enough electricity to power thousands to millions of households.

The generated voltage in a power station is AC voltage, not DC. So, it is never converted to AC, because it is already AC.
Because it doesn't burn anything. Power is generated by water turning a turbine.

It opened on 26 January, 1962. I worked on the dam and the first power was generated on January 14, 1965.

20% of the worlds power is generated by nuclear power
The size of a power station is usually given by its output, not the dimensions of the plant or property. The largest station in the world on this basis is the Kendal Power Station in Mpumalanga, South Africa. It has six 686 MW units for a total plate capacity of 4,116 megawatts (MW). By comparison the Lambton Power Generating Station in Ontario had a generating capacity of 1,976 MW when originally developed and generated most of the electricity used in southwestern Ontario.

Hydroelectricity (generated from water), geothermal electricity (generated from the landmass), solar thermal power (generated from the sun) and wind power. (generated from wind)
Electricity generated by water power alone is hydroelectric power.
