Tongland Power Station generates hydroelectricity from the power of the River Dee. A simple demonstration with plastic bottles is used to explain how electricity is generated. Water from the River Dee is collected into a reservoir. This is then released through a pipe, which channels it towards a turbine. The moving water turns the turbine, which generates the electricity. After this the water continues its flow down the Dee towards the sea. Tongland is one of six power stations on this river system. It generates enough electricity to light up 18,000 homes.
