Hydroelectric power installations harness the energy contained in flowing water to produce electricity. Hydroelectric power is considered a renewable energy source because the water isn’t consumed during the process and because water is part of a constantly regenerating natural cycle. It also doesn’t produce greenhouse gases.
Hydroelectric power stations work when flowing water runs through a turbine, which spins the rotor of an electricity generator and creates a magnetic field that induces an electric current.
