The diagram illustrates how hydropower plants capture energy from falling water to generate electricity.
Overall, there are several distinct stages, from the initial passage of the water from the dam to the eventual electricity transmitting to a national grid.
The procedure commences with river water stores in the high-level reservoir with a dam. During the day time, the intake opens in order to make the water flow along the slope. In the next, the force of falling water pushing against the turbine’s blades causes the turbine to spin. After that, power is generated which gets supplied to the national grid through the power lines.
On the other hand, during the night stage, the water is transported from a low-level reservoir through the reversible turbines to pump back to the high-level tank. So that it can be reprocessed for the next activities.
