What type of energy does hydroelectric power generate?

Hydroelectric power generates electrical energy by harnessing the kinetic energy of flowing or falling water. When water flows through turbines in a dam or hydroelectric plant, it spins the turbines, which then convert this mechanical energy into electrical energy. This renewable energy source is highly efficient and contributes significantly to the global energy supply.
