Hydropower💧
Moving water makes Hydropower!💧
How it works
Hydropower generates in the USA about 9% of total energy supply. Hydropower uses the Earths water cycle to genorate electricity because,movement of water as it flows downstream creates kinetic energy that can be then converted into electricity.
Some facts about hydropower!
1. Hydropower today provides about 20% of the worlds electricity and its main energy source for more than 30 countries.
2.Hydroelectric energy is renewable. This means that we cannot use up. However, there’s only a limited number of suitable reservoirs where hydroelectric power plants can be built and even less places where such projects are profitable.
3.Hydroelectricity is very reliable energy. There are very little fluctuations in terms of the electric power that is being by the plants, unless a different output is desired. Countries that have large resources of hydropower use hydroelectricity as a base load energy source. As long as there is water in the magazines electricity can be generated.
Some of the graphs
Pie chart
From this pie chart it shows out of oil,gas,and hydro, hydropower is the most used at 47.4%.
Bar graph
Listed from left to right is the states Canada,United States,Former USSR,Brazil,China,Norway,Japan,Sweden,India,and France.
Canada is the country that uses hydropower the most with around 300 kilowatts.
Hydropower is the safest
Compared to the other fossil fuels,hydropower is the safest because it doesn't use flammable resources,so if something was to happen there wouldn't be any flames.
