hydroélectricité

Hydroélectricité, or hydropower, is a method of generating electricity by harnessing the energy of moving water, typically from rivers or dams. Water flows through turbines, causing them to spin, which then drives generators to produce electrical power. It’s a renewable and clean energy source because it relies on the natural water cycle. Hydropower is widely used around the world due to its efficiency and ability to provide a consistent, large-scale supply of electricity, making it an important component of many countries’ energy portfolios.
