Hydroelectric Power

Natural Gas

Important Details Hydropower Natural Gas Human use falling water to produce electricity. Its renewable because water constantly cycles from water sources, to air, to land, and back. It has been used for thousands of years. It is used in some gases for cars. It’s a nonrenewable energy source because it is formed from the remains of organisms. It was found deep in the earths surface in the 1800s.

How is this energy source used in present day? Hydropower Natural Gas 1. Dams 2. Water wheels 3. Reservoirs 4. Falling water 5. Power plants 1. Cooking and Heating 2. Most Households 3. Oil and Gas 4. Pipeline Fuel 5. Vehicle Fuel

Pros Hydropower Natural Gas Its inexpensive and causes little pollution. The time for a Hydropower station to shut down and restart is way shorter. Hydropower is undoubtedly the most widely used form of renewable energy. The installation can be beneficial for fish breeding. The stations generate energy for years. Causes less air pollution than oil. Its easy to transport. It is a cleaner burning energy source. Its becoming increasingly popular. Its about 40% less pollutant than other fossil fuels.

Cons Hydropower Natural Gas It could reduce the demand for fossil fuels. Often destroys other wildlife resources like forests. The need for a large enough reservoir is limited. There is always a risk that the reservoir could give away at the event of an unexpected heavy rainfall. Droughts can have a severe adverse impact on hydropower generation. Natural gas is very flammable. It can lead to fires or deadly explosions. Transportation is easy but, expensive. Its a limited source. It takes miles of pipeline to transport.
