The first is an electric plant where the electricity is created. Second is a dam that has an opening and closing to control the water flow. The third the reservoir where the water can be stored. ]]> 2016-07-10 20:42:52 UTC https://padlet.com/isabella_templeton/zj7xrouj43ng/wish/116166495 isabella_templeton https://padlet.com/isabella_templeton/zj7xrouj43ng/wish/116166583 The water from the dam pushes it to the blades of a turbine. The blades starts to turn. The turbine activates a generator that creates the electricity. The amount of energy possible depends on how much water drops and how much water moves through the system.]]> 2016-07-10 20:48:15 UTC https://padlet.com/isabella_templeton/zj7xrouj43ng/wish/116166583 isabella_templeton https://padlet.com/isabella_templeton/zj7xrouj43ng/wish/116166647 Farmers since the ancient Greeks have used water wheels to grind the wheat into flour. This proves that this concept and invention has been around for a while. They placed water wheel in river to receive energy to run mill. Also in 1879 the first hydro was built at Niagara Falls . In 1881 the street lamps there were hydropowered. In 1882 at Appleton Wisconsin The first Hydro plant began operating in U.S.A. ]]> 2016-07-10 20:53:11 UTC https://padlet.com/isabella_templeton/zj7xrouj43ng/wish/116166647 isabella_templeton https://padlet.com/isabella_templeton/zj7xrouj43ng/wish/116166764 Provides one- fifth of the world's electricity. The top producers of hydropower are China, Brazil,Canada, Russia, and U.S.A.. Three Gorges is the one of the world largest hydro power plant. In Washington state more than 70% electricity is produced by hydropowered facilities.]]> 2016-07-10 21:00:34 UTC https://padlet.com/isabella_templeton/zj7xrouj43ng/wish/116166764 isabella_templeton https://padlet.com/isabella_templeton/zj7xrouj43ng/wish/116167597 There are 3 units
