The diagram illustrates the circular process of generating electricity in a hydroelectric power station. The electricity is generated by the flow of water running through the turbines in the station then taken to the national grid.
There is a high-level reservoir which is full of water from a river. The water is held back by a colossal dam that flows through the intake which opens in the day. The opening gap makes the flow extreme and strong that goes across the reversible turbines and operate it to generate electricity. Through the generator in the power station, electricity is delivered from the power lines to the national grid.
When the night comes, the intake is closed. After being pumped by the reversible turbines, the water from the low-level reservoir flows into the high-level one across the intake so that the reservoir is always in a state of full water.
