Renewable and Non- Renewable energy sources Electricity is not a source of energy. It has to be generated using renewable or non-renewable energy sources. Renewable energy sources can be easily replaced and wont run out, non-renewable energy sources will run out and cannot be easily replaced.

Task Create a presentation about your given method of generating electricity. Your presentation needs to include: How it works, this needs to include the energy changes involved. The advantages of using this method. The disadvantages of using this method. A real life example of where this method is used. Two interesting facts. Your presentation needs to be completed on keynote, every one in the group is expected to speak at some point during the presentation. You only have this lesson to do this, divide up the jobs between the people in your group.
