What is it?

01

Hydraulic energy, also called hydroelectric energy, is that which is obtained from the kinetic and potential energies of the water flow. It has always been said that it is important that electricity and water do not come into contact, but one nourishes the other; The force and movement of water from rivers or seas is used to generate electricity, that is, hydraulic energy. This electricity is obtained in hydroelectric plants, for example.

Types of energies

Renewable energies are those that come from natural and inexhaustible sources such as wind, sun or water.

Renewable

Non-rene wable energies are those obtained from fossil fuels such as oil, natural gas or coal.

How does it get to our homes?

Energy storage and transportation

The energy produced by water that is stored in reservoirs and lakes at high altitudes. This energy is transformed into kinetic energy and then into electrical energy in the hydroelectric plant.

One of its most common advantages is that it is a clean energy source, without waste and easy to store.

1. High initial cost. SOLUTION: reduce the cost of employees. 2. Climatological dependence.
