Question

Which method is used to produce electricity in hydroelectric power plant

Answer 1

Electricity is produced in hydroelectric power plants by the following method -

• In the hydroelectric power plants,the conversion of the energy forms method is mainly used.
• The high velocity water flow plays the most important role in this case. The kinetic energy of the water flow is used by these hydroelectric power plants.
• The kinetic energy of the water flow is used to rotate the turbines which is further connected to the dynamo. The dynamo later transforms the harnessed kinetic energy into electrical energy.
• In this way,the hydroelectric power plants produce electricity.
