Hydro-Electric Power

2. Advantages No pollution – Water is good everywhere
Doesn’t depend on international trade
Renewable – Water is “renewed” or reused through the water cycle
Can provide backup power
Cheap – Water is everywhere
Can provide irrigation and control floods
All of these things make hydro-power easily attainable.

3. Disadvantages
Disruption of fish migration habits – only if done improperly.
Drought can affect how much electricity is produced, if any at all
Can worsen water quality of the the water in which it is used

4. Primary Source
The Sun and the water cycle replenish the water as a primary source

6. How Hydro-Electricity is Generated (using math)
P = pQgh – Power available for generating energy using hydropower Q= Δ𝑉 Δ𝑡 – Volume flow rate (volume/sec) P = power generated in Kilowatts p = pressure of water g = 9.81m/s^2 h = height
