This document discusses hydel power (hydroelectric power). It defines hydel power as energy generated by converting the kinetic energy of moving water into electricity. It explains that hydel power plants work by using the kinetic energy of moving water to turn turbine blades, which spin a generator to produce electricity. The document outlines different types of hydel power plants and discusses advantages like no fuel costs and reliability, as well as disadvantages such as high construction costs and potential environmental impacts. It concludes by stating that hydel power is an important renewable energy source that can help meet growing energy demands in an environmentally-friendly manner.

3. Definition :-
A form of energy generated by the conversion of moving
Water to electricity is known as hydel power .

4. Working principle:-
 To generate electricity , kinetic should be converted
into mechanical energy then to electrical energy.
 In other words , kinetic energy of the moving water
turn the blades in the turbines (mechanical energy)
and the turbine is connected to the generator then
electricity generated.

5. Types of hydel power plant:-
 Impoundment
 Diversion
 Micro hydropower etc.

6. Transmission of power :-

7. Hydel power plant in India

8. Advantages :-
 No fuel charges.
 Running cost is almost nil.
 Highly reliable.
 Efficiency doesn’t decreases with time.
 Construction and operation quite simple.
 Starts quickly and synchronizes fast.
 Maintainers cost is low.

9. Disadvantages :-
 High construction cost.
 There is limited feasible sites for construction.
 Dam construction causes loss of land suitable for
agriculture.
 It effects the marine animals.
 Dam construction prevent the upstream
migration of fish.

10. Conclusion :-
 Reclamation is helping to meet the needs of our
country.
 most important to meet the growing demands.
 Water is one of our most valuable resources and
hydropower makes use of this renewable
treasure.
 Future energy needs in a manner that protects
the environment by improving hydropower
projects and operating them more effectively.
