Hydroelectricity is the term referring to electricity generated by hydropower; the production of electrical power through the use of the gravitational force of falling or flowing water. It is the most widely used form of renewable energy.
How to map
For a enclosed power plant, draw the outline 
and add:
power=plantplant:source=hydroplant:method=*plant:method=water-storage- Power plant producing electricity with turbines fed by water coming from a lake behind a damplant:method=water-pumped-storage- Pumped-storage hydroelectricityplant:method=run-of-the-river- Run-of-the-river hydroelectricity
plant:output:electricity=*name=*operator=*start_date=*
In the case of plant:method=water-pumped-storage, the plant:storage=* tag can be used to record the maximum amount of energy stored.
