Well, hydro electricity is cheaper because on on hand you don't have to burn fossil fuels in order to rotate the turbine and on the other hand you don't have to pay for it's drawbacks ( for example nuclear waste is very expensive to be thrown away).
I should add that in some countries like those in Middle East especially the Arab ones, as fossil fuel is very cheap and available, they mostly use it rather than other nature friendlier kinds of energy.
What else can I help you with?
How many syllables does Hydro Electricity have?
"Hydro electricity" has six syllables: hy-dro-e-lec-tri-ci-ty.
Is hydro power and hydro electricity the same thing?
Yes, hydro power and hydroelectricity refer to the same thing. It is electricity generated by harnessing the energy of moving water using turbines in hydroelectric power plants.
What are advantages of thermal power?
Thermal power plants can provide reliable and consistent energy production, helping to meet high demand for electricity. They are also less affected by weather conditions compared to renewable energy sources like solar or wind power. Additionally, thermal power plants can be built in various locations and can operate on a variety of fuels, increasing their flexibility.
What percentage Pakistan produces electricity from thermal source?
As of 2021, Pakistan produces around 60-70% of its electricity from thermal sources like oil, gas, and coal. This makes thermal power the dominant source of electricity generation in the country.
What is the name of the object which conducts thermal energy and electricity?
The object you are referring to is called a conductor. Conductors are materials that allow the flow of both thermal energy and electricity through them.
Why is hydroelectricity better than normal electricity?
hydro electricity is better than normal electricity because it is cheaper.
What are the three resources of electricity in Pakistan?
