Hydro-Electric Power Generation

Hydro-Electric Power Generation


  • Hydro-electric power stations are used where water resources are available in an ample quantity at sufficient head 
  • Such plants are built along with the dam
  • Low energy cost due to low operating cost
  • The potential energy of the water stored at a height is converted into mechanical energy by using water turbine
  • A generator coupled to the water turbine converts the mechanical energy into electrical energy
