Comment on My apartment building gives me free water but I pay for electricity. What if I run the faucet nonstop and rig up a hydro turbine in my bathtub to generate my power from it?

  What does that have to do with water pressure? In that system, the energy comes from the heat.

    True – it would require a external heat source (wood, gas, coal, concentrated solar, etc) to boil water for turbine generated electricity.
