Hydroelectricity
This is a exmaple for a Hydroelecrticity the hydroelecrycity generate whit turbine the water move the turbine and generate elecricity whit a system the if you look this video you cant look the system for the hydroelectricity.
Hydroelectricity is the term referring to electricity generated by hydropower; the production of electrical power through the use of the gravitational force of falling or flowing water. It is the most widely used form of renewable energy. Once a hydroelectric complex is constructed, the project produces no direct waste, and has a considerably lower output level of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide (CO2) than fossil fuel powered energy plants. Worldwide, an installed capacity of 777 GWe supplied 2998 TWh of hydroelectricity in 2006.[1] This was approximately 20% of the world's electricity, and accounted for about 88% of electricity from renewable sources.[2
The hydroelectricity have 3 steps.
Step 1: The generator contains magnets and copper wire.
The rotating magnets induce a current in the wire to produce electricity.
The hydroelectricity need Reservoir: a reservoir, lake,or river provides water pressure to the turbine using gravity.
The hydrielectricity need a Dam stucture: the dam structure contains the powerhouse,including penstock, turbine, and generator.The dam stores the water in the reservoir
Step 2: The trasformer steps up the voltage for trasmission to power subtations.
The Step 3 and the last are POWER LINES: power lines conduct electricity wich is used in homes and businesses.
