∙ 15y agoTake a close look at your power bill, the price you are paying should be on it. If not there call the power authority and ask them how much you are being charged per kWh.

What is the purpose of a power generator?
to generate power
What effect does generating more hydroelectricity have on the use of wind turbines and wave power?
If more hydroelectricity is generated as an energy source, wind turbines and wave power will be used less. If these sources are used less, this could cause job loses and other detrimental effects.
Why Norway can produce so much hydroelectricity?
it still has plenty of running water
What are some uses of hydro power?
hydropower or hydroelectricity is the power of water generated by water. we use this electricity everywhere it powers 24% of the worlds electricity.
Why is fossil fuels worse then hydroelectric power?
Fossil fuels are worst than hydroelectric power because when they are burnt to harness their energy, they release CO2, a greenhouse gas, this enhances the effects of global warming and as once fossil fuels have been mined and burnt, they are gone and will not reacumilate again for millions of years whereas hydroelectricity doesn't burn any carbon, releasing no CO2 and hydroelectricity's original source of power will never run out, making it much more efficient.
What is Hydroelectric power?
Moving water can be used to generate electricity in hydroelectric power stations.
Is hydroelectricity an renewable resource?
Sort of. Electricity in not considered a resource since it can be generated in a multitude of ways. That being said, hydroelectricity is a sustainable way to generate power. This would also include solar and wind power.
How is hydorelectric power generated?
Hydroelectricity is generated by building dams or waterwheels wcitch flow through turbines to generate electricity.
How much of its power does Latin amer get from hydroelectricity?
What is Latin america
How much power does the US use of hydroelectricity?
I guess 20%
What force is used to generate hydroelectricity?
Fast, running water.
How are wind power and hydroelectricity different?
Wind power refers to actually using the wind to create energy (think windmills). Hydro power refers to using currents and dams + turbines to generate energy.
Do you need electricity to power hydroelectricity?
do you gyus no if you need electricty to make hydroelectricity
Why is Bangladesh unable to use the Ganges and the Brahmaputra rivers to generate hydroelectricity?
Lack of funds.
What is electricity made from moving water called?
hydroelectric
How much horsepower does Niagara Falls generate?
5 3/4 MILLION Horsepower- about 55 percent on the American side and 45 percent on the Canadian side
How much do wind turbines reduce global warming?
They do not reduce global warming in any way they are just a source of electricity, like solar power and hydroelectricity. Solar power and wind power are renewable power sources but hydroelectricity is not due to the cost of construction and the dams breaking.
