You need lakes and streams with a considerable amount of current, pressure and volume. It would be inefficient to setup a hydro electric power plant for a small body of water with like current. You also need to take into consideration things like the environment.
It will make them foamy. Or it would, if I had any lakes and streams.
It makes very good sense for New Zealand to make much more use of hydroelectric power than the UK because New Zealand has more lakes which are situated high above sea level than the UK.
Hydroelectric energy is generated by a dam built over a river. Water is trapped by the damn and released through holes in the dam inside of which are turbines, turned by the rushing water which in turn power generators which make the electricity. The advantages are: They make infinite renewable energy with no effects on the environment other than river dwelling creatures habitats. Disadvantages are: The dams are expensive to build and can only be built high up in mountains where there are lakes and streams etc.
Normally, hydroelectric power requires a dam and a turbine. It is possible to use a water mill instead of a dam.
No, only where there is moving water.
You can make a working model of a hydroelectric power plant by creating a diarama out of a box and diagramming the different parts within the box to scale.
Norway is the European country that produces the most hydroelectric power. Its abundant rivers and water resources make it an ideal location for harnessing hydroelectric energy.
rain water and water used to irrigate crops can carry these nitrates to rivers and lakes
this question does not make much sence but yes hydroecectric power is used lots in many different countries. Infact the world get 19% of its energy from hydroelectric power
No, In a hydroelectric system force of water rotates a dynamo that generates power. The power must be used or stored in a battery. If the battery is dead you cannot store power.
New Zealand generates more hydroelectric power than the UK primarily due to its abundant water resources and mountainous terrain, which provide ideal conditions for hydroelectric generation. Approximately 60% of New Zealand's electricity comes from hydro sources, leveraging its numerous rivers and lakes. In contrast, the UK's energy mix is more diversified, with a significant reliance on fossil fuels and nuclear power, resulting in a lower proportion of hydroelectric generation. Additionally, New Zealand's commitment to renewable energy aligns with its natural advantages in hydropower.
