WATER POWER

RENEWABLE ENERGY Renewable energy comes from renewable resources. It is different from fossil fuels as it does not produce as many greenhouse gases and other pollutants as fossil fuel burning. There are a lot of traditional uses of wind power, hydropower, biofuel, and solar energy in developed and developing countries. But the mass production of electricity using renewable energy sources is now becoming more common.

TYPES OF RENEWABLE ENERGY Solar Energy Wind energy Thermal Energy Bioenergy Hydropower

HISTORY In Imperial Rome, water powered mills produced flour from grain, and were also used for sawing timber and stone. In China, watermills were widely used since the Han Dynasty. In China and the rest of the Far East, hydraulically operated "pot wheel" pumps raised water into irrigation canals.

Water power is power derived from the energy of falling water and running water, which may be harnessed for useful purposes. Hydro power has been used since the ancient times. First it was used to transport, later to the drive mechanisms.

Water wheels, used for hundreds of years to power mills and machines. Hydroelectric energy, a term usually reserved for hydroelectric dams. Tidal energy, which captures energy from the tides in horizontal direction.

THREE GORGES DAM The Three Gorges Dam is the world’s largest hydropower project and most notorious dam. The Three Gorges Dam is a model for disaster, yet Chinese companies are replicating this model both domestically and internationally

1. The Parnica´s will built on the small river Zázrivka in The mill in Beňová lehota (part of our town Dolný Kubín) was built in It was reconstructed into pension with the span manufactury. 3. The small hydroelectric power station (Dolný Kubín). 4.,5.,6., are mils in Vyšný Kubín. 7. The power station in Russian´s bakery.

SMALL HYDROELECTRIC POWER STATION The Energy 5 L.T.D company was formed in 2007 to build and operate the electricity energy sources from redeemable sources. The process of building the small hydroelectric power station influced character of the reconstruction place. The building of this small hydroelectric power station get better natural conditions, too.
