Hydroelectric, or water power, is produced when the water rushes through the penstock and spins the turbine. The shaft that joins the turbine and generator spins through electro-magnets in the generator and produces the energy which is sent through the power lines to our homes. Hydroelectric, or water power, is produced when the water rushes through the penstock and spins the turbine.

Dams also aid in flood control and irrigation. Dams also aid in flood control and irrigation. /hydroelectric_dam.gif

Wind Turbines The way that power is generated with a wind turbine is similar to the way it is generated in a dam. Wind spins the blades in a wind turbine instead of water. Touchet Windmills

Solar power is produced by heating water to make steam. A steam generator than produces the electricity. Power is also produced by the sun by charging batteries.

 Plutonium is used to heat water for steam generators.  Dangerous toxic waste is created.  There are negative effects on the environment.  Plutonium is a nonrenewable resource.
