- Facts about water power or hydropower include12345:
- Water gains potential energy just before it spills over the top of a dam or flows down a hill.
- The potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as water flows downhill.
- The water can be used to turn the blades of a turbine to generate electricity, which is distributed to the power plant’s customers.
- Hydropower is energy in moving water.
- Hydropower was one of the first sources of energy used for electricity generation, and until 2019, hydropower was the leading source of total annual U.S. renewable electricity generation.
- Today, hydropower provides about 16 percent of the world's electricity, generating power in all but two U.S. states.
- Hydro electric power does not produce any carbon dioxide emissions when using water to produce electricity.
- Electricity can be generated 24 hours a day as long as there is enough water.

Its power can be seen in floods that uproot trees or heard in the roar of a waterfall. That power, called waterpower or hydropower, can be used as an alternative energy source. Unlike fossil fuels, it cannot be used up. When waterpower is harnessed, it can be used to create electricity, or hydroelectricity.kids.britannica.com/kids/article/waterpower/625245Hydropower is energy in moving water People have a long history of using the force of water flowing in streams and rivers to produce mechanical energy. Hydropower was one of the first sources of energy used for electricity generation, and until 2019, hydropower was the leading source of total annual U.S. renewable electricity generation.www.eia.gov/energyexplained/hydropower/Water is plentiful, free and renewable. Hydro electric power does not produce any carbon dioxide emissions when using water to produce electricity. Electricity can be generated 24 hours a day as long as there is enough water. But this can’t happen every day as the reservoir needs time to fill up again from time to time.www.funkidslive.com/learn/curious-kate/curious-fac…Today, hydropower provides about 16 percent of the world's electricity, generating power in all but two U.S. states. Hydropower became an electricity source in the late 19th century, a few decades after British-American engineer James Francis developed the first modern water turbine.www.nationalgeographic.com/environment/article/h… - People also ask
