Solar power Wikipedia
2019124 ensp 0183 enspSolar power is the conversion of energy from sunlight into electricity either directly using photovoltaics PV indirectly using concentrated solar power or a combination Concentrated solar power systems use lenses or mirrors and tracking systems to focus a large area of sunlight into a small beam
Thermal power station Wikipedia
20191120 ensp 0183 enspA thermal power station is a power station in which heat energy is converted to electric power In most places the turbine is steamdriven Water is heated turns into steam and spins a steam turbine which drives an electrical generator After it passes through the turbine the steam is condensed in a condenser and recycled to where it was heated This is known as a Rankine cycle
How do power plants work How do we make electricity
In a hydroelectric plant a river is made to back up behind a huge concrete dam The water can escape through a relatively small opening in the dam called a penstock and as it does so it makes one or more turbines spin around For as long as the river flows the turbines spin and the dam generates hydroelectric power

3 Environmental Impacts of Hydroelectric Power
We should start off by saying that there are three orders of environmental impacts of hydroelectric power Mostly this type of power is taken from dams placed on rivers and streams making the dams the biggest factor in impacting the environment In what follows we will focus on how dams impact river ecosystems and offer more details about it
