Hy the hydro power stations have high transmission and Distribution costs?..

Answer / guest

I dont think the distribution cost will be more than other
power sources. but yes, distribution cost will be more
usualy because these are located very far from load
centres. here the source is water at high potential and it
is not found near to populated areas.

Why distribution cost will be more, once transmitted to
load centres, the power distributin will be same
irrespective or power generated by hydro or thermal.

Any inputs on this answer are welcome.
