Is hydroelectricity or water?
Hydropower, often known as hydroelectric power, is a type of renewable energy that generates electricity by harnessing the natural flow of flowing water. Hydropower presently accounts for 37% of total renewable electricity output and 7% of overall electricity generation in the United States.
While most people connect hydropower with the Hoover Dam, a massive structure that harnesses the power of an entire river behind its walls, hydropower plants come in many shapes and sizes. Some are quite huge, but others are quite small, taking advantage of water flows in municipal water systems or irrigation ditches. With diversions or run-of-river facilities that divert part of a stream through a powerhouse before rejoining the main river, they can even be “damless.” Whatever method is utilized, hydropower is far more accessible and widely used than most people know. Hydropower is used for electricity in all but two states (Delaware and Mississippi), with certain states using it more than others. Hydropower, for example, provided around 66 percent of Washington’s electricity in 2020.
