Explanation:
Thermal, hydroelectric, and nuclear power are the three primary methods of energy generation. The creation of electricity via thermal power is based on the usage of heat energy. Hydroelectric power is the generation of electricity using the kinetic energy of falling water. Nuclear power, on the other hand, is the utilisation of long-term nuclear fission to generate electricity.
