1 HYDROPOWER BY JOEY NEWELL AND ASHLEY McFADDEN

2 WHAT IS HYDROPOWER?

3 HYDROPOWER IS ENERGY CREATED BY TURBINES SPUN BY FLOWING WATER CREATING ELECTRICTY WHICH THEN TRANSFERS TO THE POWERHOUSE AND OUT TO POWERLINES

4 HOW DOES IT WORK?

5 LOWERED CARBON FOOTPRINT
PRO’S EFFICIENT LOW COST LOWERED CARBON FOOTPRINT CLEAN RENEWABLE

6 CON’S CHANGED WATER FLOW MAY DISRUPT WILD LIFE CAUSES DROUGHTS
CAN IMPACT WATER QUALITY

7 HYDRO V. SOLAR POWER HYDROPOWER WORKS ANYTIME OF DAY OR WEATHER
HYDROPOWER IS CHEAPER THAN SOLAR POWER IT HAS A HIGHER EFFICENCY THAN SOLAR POWER.

8 HYDRO V. NUCLEAR POWER HYDRO HAS A CHEAPER COST THAN NUCLEAR POWER.
NUCLEAR RELEASES SMALL AMOUNTS OF RADIATION INTO THE ATMOSPHERE. NOT RENEWABLE.

9 HYDRO V. FOSSIL FUELS HYDRO POWER IS CHEAPER
IT’S GETTING HARDER TO FIND OIL AND GAS DEPOSITS ENVIROMENTALLY DAMAGING, WITH CATASTROPHIC DAMAGE FROM OIL SPILLS
