A giant tube in a hydropower plant is typically known as a penstock. It is a large pipe or conduit that carries water from the reservoir to the turbines, where the potential energy of the water is converted into mechanical energy to generate electricity. The size of a penstock can vary depending on the capacity and design of the hydropower plant.
