How to get constant 120 volt output from a variable-output hydroelectric source?
So I’m attempting to design a hydroelectric system that will obviously be producing variable power. Lets say I use an AC generator, so directly from there I have varying frequency and power output. I want the final product to be 60Hz, 120V RMS AC. What steps must I take to get there, with reasonably high […]
where are the hydroelectric plants located in the world?
please provided info where it is situated (city & country) and if you can, how many hydroelectric plants are there in the world?
Where can I find specific information about Hydroelectric Energy?
I am writing a 5-page report on hydroelectric power/energy for a high school science class, and I am in need of some information to work with. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
What is the process of hydroelectric energy into a water dam and then into electricity? How does it work?
I know the hydroelectric energy part, but what is the rest? Please answer ASAP (as soon as possible)
How much of the world’s hydroelectricity comes from hydroelectric dams?
I would also appreciate- how much is produced from other hydroelectric sources, such as run of river? Sources would be appreciated also as I am doing a science project on this.

Where can I find information on Hydroelectric Power?
I’m doing a persuasive research paper on why Hydroelectric Power is a better energy resource than any other alternative resources. I have a few web sites I’ve found with good information but still need more because the paper is 8+ pages. I’ll probably check out a few books at the library as well but as […]
