1 Earth’s Energy Endowment

2 Earth’s Energy Flows Solar flow Tidal flow Geothermal flow Also Energy is stored in Fossil fuels Nuclear fuels

3 Solar Energy Solar energy is the radiant light and heat from the Sun. It is a renewable energy source.

4 Geothermal energy Geothermal energy is heat from within the earth. Geothermal energy is a renewable energy source.

5 Tidal energy or Tidal power Tidal energy is created by the relative motion of the Earth, Moon, Sun, and the gravitational interactions between them.

6 Fossil Fuels. oilCoal Gas Fossil Fuels are hydrocarbons. they have been formed from the organic remains of prehistoric plants and animals. Three major fossil fuels are :

7 How do fossil fuels form?

8 Fossil Fuel Use 86 % of global energy consumption is fossil fuel.

9 Fossil Fuel Uses

10 Nuclear Fuels Nuclear power is generated using Uranium, which is a metal mined in various parts of the world. It is a non-renewable energy resource.

11 Wind power Variation of pressure between areas caused by solar energy, causes wind effect. Wind power is a renewable source.

12 Biomass Wood and dry crop wastes are referred to as biomass derived fuels. Plants use photosynthesis, deriving the energy from the sun.
