Part 4/6:

  1. The Power Transmission Lines: These lines transport the generated electricity from the hydroelectric facility to homes and businesses, ensuring that the energy reaches those who need it.

Factors Influencing Electricity Production from Dams

Various factors determine how much electricity a dam can produce, notably:

  • Height of the Waterfall: The distance the water falls directly affects its power generation capability. For example, a 100-foot dam can produce twice as much energy as a 50-foot dam.

  • Volume of Water: The more water flowing through the dam, the greater the potential for electricity production. While the flow of water is not entirely controllable, operators can manage the flow rate to adjust electricity output.
