1. ENERGY By: Phoebe biomass hydropower Wind power Solar power nuclear geothermal Experiment #1 Experiment #2 Energy Transformation Conclusion Credits

2. Hydroelectricity Water energy Renewable Doesn’t emit with green house gasses Goes through a dam and turns a turbine therefore generating electricity 3.3% of hydroelectricity is used in the US The positive of hydroelectricity is that it is a reliable source of energy for places such as Las Vegas The negative of hydroelectricity is that it must be located near a water source

3. Solar Energy Sun energy We use solar panels to take the suns heat and turns it into electricity 1% of US electricity is made from solar electricity Takes away suns heat Is renewable Is a lot of money

4. Wind Power Is renewable Wind turbines are used to generate electricity As long as the suns shining wind power will be made, if not, we’re out of luck Disturbs animal life

5. Nuclear Is non- renewable Produces radioactive waste E-mc2= atomic bomb Matter is changed into electricity Energy inside an atom There’s tons of nuclear power Atoms split and makes electricity 20% of nuclear power is used in the US

6. Geothermal Made inside the earth Is renewable Costs more money to drill Heat electricity Is not radio active.4% of geothermal electricity is used in the US

7. Biomass Made out of natural waste Burned to make electricity 4% of Biomass is used in the US Very few refineries Renewable

8. Fossil fuels It comes from dead plants and animals that died millions of years ago It is changed into electricity in a refinery 81% of fossil fuels is used in the US Is nonrenewable and takes millions of years to form We have a lot of it

9. Energy Transformation Energy Transformation is how something changes to electricity

10. Experiment One
