Definition of Hydroelectricity • Hydroelectricity comes from a hydroelectric dam it makes power.
. • The hydroelectric dam creates power by damming a lake or river. The water is held back a little bit. Some of the water travels down a pipe and through a turbine witch turns a shaft witch turns a generator creating power.
It is harmless to the enviourment.It generates a lot of power. it never stops generating power unless the river or lake drys up but I doubt that’s going to happen.
. • Some disadvantages about hydroelectricity are a lot of the aerie behind the dam will f flood. The dam coasts a lot of money to build. It can sometimes harm fish.
