Which power plant is being developed in Zangla of Kargil district?

Hydropower
Geothermal
Nuclear
Solar

The correct answer is: A. Hydropower.

A hydropower plant is a type of power plant that uses the force of moving water to generate electricity. The water is typically collected in a reservoir behind a dam, and then released through a turbine to spin a generator. Hydropower is a renewable energy source that does not produce greenhouse gases.

The Zangla hydropower plant is a proposed 100 MW hydroelectric power plant in Zangla, Kargil district, Ladakh, India. The plant will be located on the Indus River, and will use a run-of-the-river scheme. The plant is expected to be completed by 2023.

The other options are incorrect because:

  • Geothermal power plants use heat from the Earth’s interior to generate electricity.
  • Nuclear power plants use nuclear fission to generate electricity.
  • Solar power plants use the sun’s energy to generate electricity.
