Who invented hydro-electric power? Lester Allan Pelton was an American inventor who created an efficient form of impulse water turbine in 1878 in the goldfields.    In 1887 a miner attached Pelton's wheeâ¦l to a dynamo and produced the first hydroelectric power in the Sierra Nevada Mountains.
Conventional hydroelectric. Utilize the potential energy of a dammed water to turn the turbine that is connected to the generator. The hydropower is depends on the volume of the dammed water (reservoir) and the height difference between the source and the penstock. Run-of-the-river. While the conventional method uses the potential energy of dammed water, this method uses the kinetic energy of free-flowing water in the river or streams.
