The Perspective of Hydropower as Renewable Energy
Abstract
According to environmental impact of fossil fuel, growth population and demand for energy, it is compulsory to replace the fossil fuel with renewable energy. Hydropower as a renewable energy possesses a lot of potential to provide energy and it is essential to improve the kinetic energy devices to harness the energy of water.
