Question

What is hydro power plant reservoir?

Answer 1

The most common type of hydroelectric power plant is an impoundment facility. An impoundment facility, typically a large hydropower system, uses a dam to store river water in a reservoir. Water released from the reservoir flows through a turbine, spinning it, which in turn activates a generator to produce electricity.

Answer 2

Hydro power plant is a plant where electric energy is generated by the help of water flow.

In a hydro power plant the kinetic energy of water is changed into mechanical energy by rotating turbine and this turbine generates electric energy which is later used in our household works.
