Solution

The power generated from water is called hydro-electric power.

Explanation:

This is produced by harnessing the energy of fast-flowing rivers through dams and multipurpose river valley projects. Hydro-electric power is renewable, pollution-free, and relatively inexpensive compared to other sources. In India, it contributes about 13.6% of the total energy generation.
