Hydro

Hydropower, or hydro, is a method of generating electricity using the energy of moving water. Typically, water from rivers or dams is funneled through turbines, causing them to spin. This mechanical energy is then converted into electrical energy by generators. It’s a renewable and clean source of power because it relies on the natural water cycle. Hydropower is efficient and provides a reliable supply of electricity, often serving as a major component of a country's energy mix. Its environmental impact depends on how it’s developed, with considerations for ecosystems and water flow.
