Page 7 of 39 Chapter 1 Overview of Hydroelectric Power Generation Hydropower is the renewable energy source that produces the most electricity in the United States. 3. Kinetic Kinetic energy turbines, also called free-flow turbines, generate electricity from the kinetic energy present in flowing water rather than the potential energy from the head. To calculate the available power from an impoundment dam we need to know the head, amount of water available, and the efficiency of both the turbine and the generator. Impoundment Most hydroelectric power comes from the potential energy of dammed water driving a water turbine and generator. Water released from the reservoir flows through a turbine, spinning it, which in turn activates a generator to produce electricity. Pumped-Storage Hydroelectric Power Plants Pumped Storage Hydroelectric Power Plants (PSH) produce electricity to supply high peak demands by moving water between reservoirs at different elevations. A new concept is to use wind turbines or solar power to drive water pumps directly, in effect an 'Energy Storing Wind or Solar Dam'.
