- its a renewable energy source
- it doesn't pollute the air
- engineers can pick how much energy they want to create
- it can help with flooding and water supply controll
- sometimes the "lakes" can be used for recreational activites such as swimming, boating, and fishing

What waste is generated in creating or using the energy

# data[].attributes.body
Although no waste is directly created there are some environmental disadvantages. It can destroy fish migration habits and it could effect their population. It could also effect the water's temperature and flow so that could harm native animals and plants. It could also require that people be relocated.

How is hydroelectric energy transported?

# data[].attributes.body
When the water spins the turbine electricity is generated. The electricity is then transported through long distance wires to homes, factories, etc.

How long is hydroelectric power expected to last?

# data[].attributes.body
Over the next 40 years some mid-latitude areas are expected to have a decline in hydroelectric energy because of a decrease in river flow. While some areas will see a boost such as Northern Europe, East Africa, and Southeast Asia.

How is the energy source used to generate electricity?

# data[].attributes.body
Water is held behind a dam to form an artificial lake. When the water is released from the "lake" through the dam the force of the water spins a giant turbine which generates power.

# data[].attributes.body
Hydroelectric energy is a renewable energy source. It is renewable because the water is not being used up as it creates power. Once the water passes through the dam it just goes back into the original water source.

# data[].attributes.body
Relating to the generation and distribution of electricity taken from the energy of falling water or any other hydraulic source.
