Hydro-electricity uses the energy of running water to make electrical energy. Hydro-electric stations are built where there is running water. Most hydro-electric stations are located in dams where water is stored. But hydro-electric stations can also be built on rivers and near waterfalls. The flow of the water from the dam can be controlled by opening and closing gates or pipes to the dam. The dam wall also creates a high water level and this increases the pressure in the pipes.
