HYDROELECTRICITY

Hydroelectricity is electricity made by generators that are pushed by movement of water.

It is usually made with dams that block a river to make a reservoir or collect water that is pumped there.

When the water is released, the pressure behind the dam forces the water down pipes that lead to a turbine.

THERMAL ELECTRICITY

A thermal power station is a power station in which heat energy is converted to electric power.

In most of the places in the world the turbine is steam-driven.

Water is heated, turns into steam and spins a steam turbine which drives an electrical generator.
