Hydropower or hydroelectricity refers to the conversion of energy from flowing water into electricity. It is considered a renewable energy source because the water cycle is constantly renewed by the sun. 

Historically, one of the first uses of hydro power was for mechanical milling, such as grinding grains. Today, modern hydro plants produce electricity using turbines and generators, where mechanical energy is created when moving water spins rotors on a turbine.  This turbine is connected to an electromagnetic generator, which produce electricity when the turbine spins.

❤ hydropower is a good renewable energy resource

❤ it is in fact the potential energy of the water at height, which is converted to kinetic energy, when water is dropped

❤ there are very few waterfalls, which can be used as a source of energy

❤ hydro power plants in India are mainly associated with dams

❤ water falling from a height turns turbine at the bottom of dams to generate electricity such electricity is called Hydel Electricity
