water
behind the dam, followed by opening the intake gate during the Use synonyms
day
, and Use synonyms
then
delivering Linking Words
water
to the Use synonyms
power
station to generate electricity. Use synonyms
Finally
, the Linking Words

Firstly
, the river is held behind the dam, storing Linking Words
water
in a high-level Use synonyms
reservoir
. During the Use synonyms
day
, the intake is opened, and Use synonyms
water
slides down through the main pipe to the reversible turbines. Here, the passing Use synonyms
water
turns the turbines, which operate the generators in the Use synonyms
power
station. Use synonyms
Finally
, electricity is conducted to the national grid by Linking Words
power
lines. Meanwhile, the used Use synonyms
water
is collected in a low-level Use synonyms
reservoir
after passing through the turbines.
At night, the turbines’ function is reversed, and they operate as pumps. Use synonyms
As a result
, Linking Words
water
is pumped into the high-level Use synonyms
reservoir
through the same pipe Use synonyms
that is
used during the Linking Words
day
. Use synonyms
Subsequently
, the Linking Words
water
is brought back to the first Use synonyms
reservoir
, and Use synonyms
then
the intake gate is closed. Linking Words
Consequently
