Hydro – Guyana Energy Agency
Hydro Power. Hydropower is a renewable energy source based on the natural water cycle. It is the most mature, reliable and cost-effective renewable power generation technology presently commercially viable on a large scale, producing around 16% of the world''s electricity and over 80% of the world''s renewable electricity.
Guyana becomes key contributor to global crude oil supply growth
Guyana''s oil production comes from three floating production, storage, and offloading (FPSO) vessels: Liza Destiny, Liza Unity, and Prosperity.These vessels produce oil and natural gas from the Liza and Payara projects. All associated natural gas is reinjected into wells to support its production and used as on-site fuel.
Hinterland Electrification and Energy Access
Hydropower (or hydroelectric power) refers to the use of energy from naturally falling or flowing water to generate electricity. The kinetic energy from the falling water is converted to mechanical energy and then to electricity. Water constantly goes through a vast global cycle. It evaporates from lakes, rivers, oceans, and other bodies of
