Hydroelectric power plant and method of generating power is hydroelectric without a dam. It uses four simple machines, a wedge, a siphon, a constriction device and a cone. In the offshore concept a wedge divides a current flow into a upper and lower flow. The upper flow uses a constricting device for accelerating current into a siphon intake. The siphon intake makes a third fluid flow through the wedge turning a rotor inside the wedge. The lower flow accelerates current using a cone to power the down current exhaust. The onshore concept uses a plurality of wedges attached to the bottom of a body of water. Constriction devices accelerate current flow into a siphon intake. The accelerated current is piped ashore poweriing onshore hydroelectric turbines. A down current exhaust located in deeper waters is accelerated by a cone.
