A SOURCE OF ENERGY is where humans get energy from Example: solar energy, wind energy, oil, etc
3
A renewable source is an energy source that will ALWAYS be used. It will never run out Example: solar energy is renewable because the sun will always be in the sky! Wind energy is renewable because there will always be wind!
4
A non-renewable source is a source that will NOT always be used. It will run out some day. Example: oil is a non-renewable source because it is made from plants/animals that died millions of years ago. So when humans use all the oil, there will be no more!
5
A fossil fuel is: oil, natural gas, coal Fossil fuels come from plants and animals that died MILLIONS of years ago. Humans get these fuels under the Earth. Fossil fuels
6
Renewable EnergyNon-renewable Energy Wind energyOil Solar energyCoal BiomassNatural gas Geothermal energyNuclear HydroelectricFossil fuels
7
Sun solar panals electricity
8
Wind turns turbines creates electricity
9
Get energy from burning plants Burn plants heat water water vapor turns turbines electricity
10
Take heat energy from under the Earth to make energy
11
Water goes through turbines. The turbines turn. Electric energy is produced
12
These fossil fuels are burned to heat water. The water vapor turns turbines and makes electric energy
13
Divide uranium particles to make heat the heat makes water boil water vapor turns turbines electricity is made
