What are the disadvantages of hydroelectric energy? disrupts habitats flooding lack of sites political conflict may produce hazardous materials sites may stop producing energy

disrupts habitats, lack of sites, and political conflict

Explanation:

Hydroelectric energy is the energy produced from water source.

Hydroelectric energy is produced using a hydroelectric power station which converts kinetic energy of flowing water into electrical energy. In small scale turbines are used in production energy from flowing river water and in large scale  hydroelectric dams are build.

Along with the advantages there are several disadvantages of  hydroelectric energy that includes disruption of water habitats,  lack of sites, and political conflict.

Hydroelectric dams affects the physical and biological factors of water reservoirs which in return leads to exploitation of fish species.

There are limited sites for the construction of hydroelectric dams.

Hydroelectric power plant construction also leads to political conflicts in the area.
