What is it?
It converts kinetic energy which is made by
water and then produced by nature. The energy (the source that the world has)
has been harnessed by the human race!! The order to make electricity you need ENERGY
Hydrological energy
happening
It is used for ENERGY to make: cars work, the Television work
and game consoles work. Wind power
Wind is caused by huge convection currents in the Earth's
atmosphere
driven by heat energy from the Sun. The moving air has huge amounts of kinetic energy, and this can be transferred
into electrical energy using wind turbines. Wind turbines cannot
work if there is no wind, or if the wind speed is so high it
would damage them!
This source of ENERGY can help the world by powering electronic devises. The first dam (Hoover Dam) built in 1931-1936, supplying 2,000 megawatts of hydroelectric power. Currently being built, Three Gorges Dam in China, the largest hydroelectric plant in the world, will generate over 18,000 megawatts of hydroelectricity about 12% of the country’s electricity.
Did You Know?
This energy source basically comes from
water which can be used to generate
electricity to power homes and businesses.
This is a renewable source which means it
can be replenished and isn't going to run
out
A DAM IN INDIA
How does it work ?
What powers it?
Hydrological energy
is powered by dam
in well populated
counties.

A dam is a wall that
stops gallons of
water traveling into
