Answer: A
Running water is the source of hydel power.
Hydro-electric (hydel) power is generated when flowing or falling water turns turbines connected to generators, which convert the water's kinetic and potential energy into electricity. Dams store river water so that it can be released through the turbines when needed.
Thermal power comes from burning coal, oil or gas to raise steam, and nuclear power from the heat of nuclear fission; neither uses running water as its energy source. Since hydel power does, 'None of the above' is wrong.
