Advantage of hydroelectric stations from other types of stations other being dependent on the water in the generation of electric power, which relies on the power of falling water to generate this energy to convert the kinetic energy inherent in the water into electrical energy and with the availability of appropriate amounts of water, which has strongly enough to move the turbine and then the generators to provide basic nutrition for pregnancy economical fuel.

There are several natural factors must be provided so that the water in the rivers of water power , it must be severe or rapid decline in the course of the river and we have to be water in the river flowing and continuous .

And determined that exploit areas where this water to generate hydroelectric power in the mountainous regions and plateau areas that descend the river valleys of the high or low or the presence of dams or waterfalls lead to the fall of the water level to another.

Available in Iraq , many sites for hydroelectric dams represented in the waterfalls scattered in different places depending on the amount of water in the Tigris and Euphrates rivers and their tributaries from north to south , which provide appropriate quantities to achieve the economic feasibility of the establishment of hydroelectric plants in them.

The problem is prominent in this area centered around the possibility of operating hydroelectric stations to fill the shortfall of electric power and the economic feasibility of the set up , so it is through the aspects of the various search researcher tried to highlight the importance of these stations to provide a great deal of electrical energy , which contribute a share significantly from electric power which is estimated at (3396691) megawatt hour and relative importance of either the rest of the 83% ratio Vtmthelha hydroelectric plants in the Kurdistan region , amounting to 17% .

This product hydroelectric stations deployed in the provinces of Nineveh and Diyala, Anbar, Salahuddin and Karbala and Najaf , as these stations were able to achieve capacity amounted to college (1864) megawatts and this was reflected in their ability to fill part of the shortfall in the production of electric power in Iraq .
