Hydro electric Generation of Power is a common power supply most of us use, through falling water to produce our electricity, which we get from BC Hydro. What I’ve learned is that Hydro electric generation is mainly through water creating power through machines then passed onto transmission lines and terminal stations and finally to our homes and stores. Which sounds great because it’s needless to say that water will run out out in the coming years. The Pros and Cons I could think of were that it’s reliable, safe, but Dams can be broken down, and the lines can always be blown down, so it’s “temporary” or “changing” because one day this issue will come into effect and will require new methods of power
Thermal Generation is a power supply based off of burning fuel to produce energy to power the machines, and because heat is a form of energy, it can be made into electricity. The Pros are that it’s an alternative way of producing power, the cons can be that it requires other resources, mainly natural resources like coal, wood, oil. Which will run out one day or another. Note that this is continuously providing energy to the system grid.
