English to Chinese: Why Choose Hydro Power?
Source text - English Why Choose Hydro Power?
Largest Renewable
Hydropower is the world's largest source of renewable energy. Energy is produced by a continuous solar-driven cycle as water evaporates into the atmosphere, condenses and returns as rain, replenishing rivers and lakes as part of a continuous cycle.
Reducing Green House Gas
Hydropower is also a major tool which significantly reduces GHG (Green House Gas) emissions and, as such, can help meet Kyoto commitments. Hydropower is one of the cleanest energy forms available.
Unrivalled Efficiency
A hydropower plant can achieve higher efficiency than any other power generating plant, converting more than 90 percent of the available energy into electricity.
Decentralised Power
Hydropower can also be used to supply power to remote areas (mines, industrial and agricultural projects). Mini-Hydro, for instance, is a truly decentralised Power Generation solution.
Supporting the Grid's Needs
Apart from these natural advantages, hydropower is easy to store and easy to regulate – a shortfall of generation, or peak demands can be satisfied in a matter of seconds which, in a deregulated market, is of major importance.
Very High Energy "Pay Back"
Compared to other forms of power generation, hydropower has by far the highest energy payback, because on average a hydropower plant produces 200 times more energy during its lifetime than the energy needed to build and maintain it. Furthermore, the "fuel" in hydropower is basically free of charge and operating costs are very low. All this justifies the required up-front investment to build a plant which may be operational for more than 50 years.
Additional Key Benefits for the Community
Hydropower is also often multipurposed if combined with a reservoir, as the latter can provide flood control (and, as such, the lives of thousands of people can be saved), drinking water storage, irrigation as well as recreational activities.
