Hydroelectric power is a kind of energy which is generated by the conversion of the power of falling water through the turbines in a dam. In order to get a strong falling water to push the turbines‚ water has to be raise to a high level‚ thus‚ a reservoir and a dam are need to achieve this purpose. When mentioning hydroelectricity‚ the first few terms come to us might be clean‚ green‚ and renewable energy. It seems to be a popular belief that hydroelectricity is a kind of perfect energy resource

benefits‚ and issues associated with construction of the Three Gorges Dam. Remember to consider global as well as local and regional issues and impacts (or potential future impacts) of construction and operation of this dam. The three gorges dam construction on the Yangzi River in China started in the year 1997. Environmental assessment flexibility provides a clear sensitivity to the economic and social impacts of the Three Gorges project. In that case this environmental assessment is able

Case in point articles [First Last] SCI/362 [Date] [Professor] Case in Point Articles The cases in point for chapter 11 through 13 focus on different energy resources and how there are two sides to every type of energy-based need. Chapter 11 informs of us about how increasing oil exploration could destroy fragile habitats. Chapter 12 explains about the complications involved in storing dangerous radioactive wastes. Chapter 13 tells us about how even an ‘eco-friendly’ energy source can hurt

stored in dams‚ is led down through large pipes or tunnels to lower levels‚ and in the course of the fall‚ the water rotates turbines. The mechanical energy produced is converted to electricity by the generators connected to it. The structure that houses the turbines and generators is called the powerhouse. Transformers change the alternating current produced by the generators into current of very high voltage for easy transmission through long distances. Hydropower is one of the three principal

responsibilities to burden those laborers. The coal industry and Three Gorges Dam are examples of how China generates and uses energy. Approximately 1.1 million people had to be displaced from their towns in order to make way for the enormous dam. Not only were the inhabitants forced to relocate and see their homes demolished‚ they were paid a piece-rate to dismantle their own town. The vast valleys of the coal and the magnitude of the dam is an indication of the rapidity of the country’s industrialization

to generate electricity from falling water. The capacity to produce this energy is dependent on both the available flow and the height from which it falls. Hydroelectric dams create height for the water to fall and provide storage. In general‚ the higher the dam‚ the more potential energy is available. Building up behind a high dam‚ water accumulates potential energy. The potential energy is then converted to kinetic energy where it can perform work to power a generator. Hydroelectric power can come
