Hydroelectric energy comes from the potential energy of water stored in dams or flowing in rivers. This energy is converted into electricity through turbines connected to generators in hydroelectric power stations.
Ocean energy refers to various forms of renewable energy derived from the ocean, such as tidal, wave, and thermal energy. Hydro energy, on the other hand, specifically refers to energy generated from flowing water in rivers or dams. While both sources come from water, ocean energy harnesses the power of the ocean, while hydro energy focuses on rivers and dams.
Yes, rivers can provide energy through hydropower generation. Hydropower plants use the flow of water to turn turbines which generate electricity. This clean and renewable energy source is harnessed from the potential energy stored in the water as it flows downstream.
The three types of energy that come from heated water are thermal energy, mechanical energy (steam or movement of water), and electrical energy (from steam turbines generating electricity).
Hydropower is energy produced from water. It involves harnessing the energy from moving water, such as rivers or waterfalls, to generate electricity. This renewable energy source is clean and sustainable.

Heat and electromagnetic radiation from the Sun, heat from underground, Potential energy from water running down hill (ultimately this has come from the Sun as the atmosphere is powered by the Sun and it is the rain that feeds rivers). Radioactive energy from minerals in the Earth.

Rivers
Cold ones
They build dams in rivers because they can get electricity from the energy of water without pollution and it is safe.
because rivers provide us with: * food * energy * recreation * transportation routes * and water for irrigation and for drinking
