Energy is defined as the ability or the capacity to do work . Energy makes everything happen and can be divided into two types: Stored energy is called potential energy. Moving energy is called kinetic energy.Sources Of Energy : Sources Of Energy Wind Hydroelectric Solar Agricultural biomass Geothermal Tidal Nuclear Fossil Fuels ElectricityWind : Wind Wind power harnesses the power of the wind to propel the blades of wind turbines. These turbines cause the rotation of magnets, which creates electricity. Wind towers are usually built together on wind farms.Hydroelectric: Hydroelectric In hydro energy, the gravitational descent of a river is compressed from a long run to a single location with a dam or a flume. This creates a location where concentrated pressure and flow can be used to turn turbines or water wheels, which drive a mechanical mill or an electric generator .Solar : Solar Solar power involves using solar cells to convert sunlight into electricity, using sunlight hitting solar thermal panels to convert sunlight to heat water or air, using sunlight hitting a parabolic mirror to heat water, or using sunlight entering windows for passive solar heating of a buildingAgricultural Biomass: Agricultural Biomass Biomass production involves using garbage or other renewable resources such as corn or other vegetation to generate electricity. When garbage decomposes, the methane produced is captured in pipes and later burned to produce electricity.Geothermal : Geothermal Geothermal energy harnesses the heat energy present underneath the Earth. Two wells are drilled . The hot rocks heat the water to produce steam. The steam that shoots back up the other hole is purified and is used to drive turbines, which power electric generators.Tidal: Tidal Tidal power can be extracted from Moon-gravity-powered tides by locating a water turbine in a tidal current, or by building impoundment pond dams that admit-or-release water through a turbine. The turbine can turn an electrical generator, or a gas compressor, that can then store energy until neededNuclear: Nuclear Nuclear power stations use nuclear fission to generate energy by the reaction of uranium-235 inside a nuclear reactor. The reactor uses uranium rods, the atoms of which are split in the process of fission, releasing a large amount of energyFossil Fuels: Fossil Fuels Fossil fuels sources burn coal or hydrocarbon fuels, which are the remains of the decomposition of plants and animals. There are three main types of fossil fuels: coal, petroleum, and natural gasElectricity : Electricity Electricity grids are the networks used to transmit and distribute power from production source to end user, when the two may be hundreds of kilometres away. Sources include electrical generation plants such as a nuclear reactor, coal burning power plant, etc. You do not have the permission to view this presentation.
