Generating Electricity. Hydroelectric plants capture the kinetic energy of falling water to make electricity and are the largest users of water. This is done with a dam that forces the water level to go up so that the water will have more power when falling. The force of the falling water pressing against the turbines' blades cause them to spin. read more

Water energy. Like the wind, water can be used to drive turbines directly. There are several ways that water can be used, including waves, tides and falling water in hydroelectric power schemes. Wave. The water in the sea rises and falls because of waves on the surface. Wave machines use the kinetic energy in this movement to drive electricity generators. read more
