Abstract
This chapter explains the concept of dams. It mainly focuses on the dams in India. The chapter discusses the purpose as well as history of dams. The author collected data from various sources in order to perform graphical analysis to support the study. A comprehensive review of various scientific and research papers is done by the author to find the gaps in the research in the recent years. Some new dam projects are also briefly mentioned in the chapter. Plus, the author worked in the direction to find whether the current number of dams in the world, including India, is enough or not. Then, would building more dams replace the use of non-renewable sources of energy completely by itself or not? These are the matters that are mentioned in the chapter.
