The illustration shows the steps of the production of electric energy via the flow of water through the power generator. The process is fundamentally the course of water from one reservoir to another which produces electricity along the way and eventually sending to the national grid.
Initially, the water from the river enters the primary reservoir, the dam. In the daytime, the dam is opened and the stored water flows into the narrower waterway with speed. In turn, this speed produces energy to run the turbines which are also the generators in the power station. The electric current produced move along the power cables of the national grid. Thereafter, the residue water left the turbines and is collected in the secondary reservoir which is located in the lower level than the dam.
Soon the nighttime falls and the accumulated water for whole daytime is pumped up to the dam to recycle. Nevertheless, it is the complete opposite route of the daytime and during this process no electricity is produced as the water flow slower. After all, the turbines are reversible; they are responsible for pumping water up to the higher place. Later on, the intake is closed as to prevent water from flowing back to the lower region. Eventually, the whole operation of generating water is over and all prepared to start the process again.
