Modern Advances in Hydropower Technology

Course No. R-1003

Credit: 1 PDH

Course Fee: $28.95 Purchase course

Subject Matter Expert: Jeffrey Havelin, P.E., BS CE

 

Overview

Hydropower, also known as hydroelectric power, is a reliable, domestic, emission-free resource that is renewable through the hydrologic cycle and harnesses the natural energy of flowing water to provide clean, fast, flexible electricity generation. Hydropower, one of our nation’s most important renewable energy resources, has grown over the last century from 45 hydroelectric facilities in 1886 to more than 2,000 facilities in 50 states and Puerto Rico that contribute approximately 80,000 megawatts (MW) to our nation’s electrical capacity. That represents about 10% of our country’s electrical generating capability and provides more than 75% of the electricity generated from renewable sources.

The student must take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of ten (10) questions at the end of this course to obtain PDH credits.
