The diagram below shows how electricity is generated in a hydroelectric power station.

Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant.
The diagram illustrates the process of generating
electricity
using a hydroelectric power station. In general, the process cycle is broadly distributed into
day
and
night
stages with the
day
the
water
flows
downward.
On the other hand
, the
night
stage is when the
water
flows
back into the initial
reservoir
. In the beginning stages of the
day
, the
water
from the river is stored in the high-level
reservoir
. Next stage, the dam can be opened during the
day
and the
water
flows
downward to move the turbine to generate
electricity
. Next stage, the
electricity
is stored in a generator.
Then
, the power station distribution
electricity
to the National grid using Power lines. After that, the
water
to stored in the low-level
reservoir
. In terms of the
night
stages, the
water
flows
in another direction by the turbine at
night
.
Moreover
, the
water
is pumped back to a high-level
reservoir
which is closed during the
night
. The river
water
is stored at the upper level and later it
flows
down, starting the cycle again.
