Hydroelectric energy (Hydroelectricity):

   ➢ It is a type of electrical energy by water turbines in dams.

              The use of water to                  The use of wind to
              generate electricity                 generate electricity

Differences   • Water is used in                   • Wind is used in
Similarities     places where dams                    places with strong
