Hydro Energy in Canada

Hydro energy or hydropower, is a type of renewable energy that's generated through the power of water. Modern day hydro plants produce energy by using turbines and generators. The two main types of hydroelectricity production are human-made dams and natural flowing water. Hydropower is the most widely used form of renewable energy in the world. When it comes to hydro energy projects in Canada, Graybar Canada brings the latest technology and thinking to the table to help hydro producers continue to generate and distribute power as efficiently as possible.

Hydro Energy Projects In Canada

Canada is the world's second largest producer of hydro energy after China. Hydropower is Canada's leading and most efficient source of electricity and has been used since the late 1800s. Waterpower provides more than 60% of Canada's total electricity due to its overall abundance and low cost to produce.

According to Hydro Review, an estimated 70,000 megawatts of hydropower have already been developed in Canada and there are over 400 hydroelectric generating plants located across the country generating an average of 355 terawatt-hours every year.
