This Dam Makes Enough FREE Energy To Run A City
Hydroelectric Dams are vast and enormously complex pieces of infrastructure. However, the way they create renewable energy is comparatively simple! Take something high up to give it potential energy. Drop it a certain height to convert that potential energy into movement or kinetic energy. Use that kinetic energy to turn a turbine to generate electricity. And do all of that in the most efficient way possible. Bingo! Tucked away in the Mountain Resort of Revelstoke, a few hundred kilometres East of Vancouver is BC Hydro's enormous 2.8 Gigawatt dam, which first opened in 1984. Robert stepped inside the concrete behemoth to see if Hydropower really is as simple as it sounds..!
