I reckon some of the water vapour in the atmosphere will have once been steam rising and cooling. But probably not very much, so it’s fair to say hydroelectric generation may happen to use some water that was once steam, but I don’t think they can be said to rely on steam.
I think the thing that all dynamo based based electricity generators depend on in common is probably the pressure difference.
He means water vapour, ie the rain cycle.
That’s not steam, though.
It probably was at some point.
I didn’t say it was a good quip
Ooooooooh.
Would not like to be the technician working on the hydrostation where part of the rain cycle is steam

Another couple decades of oil wars and we’ll get there.
