steam is then used to drive the turbines in the power plant, which produce electricity.

shaft in the electric generator. This is the motor that makes the electricity that we want and need! Hydroelectric usually uses falling water to rotate the turbine. The water that leaves the turbine goes back into the stream right below the dam. There lots of pros to using hydroelectric power. One pro of hydroelectric power is that is is renewable! It's considered renewable because it uses our Earth’s water to produce electricity. The sun shines and the water heats up and begins to evaporate,…
