How hydroelectric dam works

How it works- as Cherrie explained what it is I’m going to tell u


all how it works. The most common type of hydroelectric
power plant uses a dam on a river to store water in a reservoir.
Water released from the reservoir flows through a turbine
which then turns the kinetic energy of falling water into
mechanical energy. Then a generator converts the mechanical
energy from the turbine into electrical energy.
