Alternative Energy = Renewable/Inexhaustible Energy Alternative to what? CoalOil - PetroleumNatural Gas

Renewable - we CAN REPLACE the resource (trees, leaves, food waste, manure.) They typically have a cycle.

Inexhaustible – will NOT run out (wind, sun, moving water)

Wind Energy O Energy is created when the wind turns the giant turbines. O Only generates power when the wind is blowing.

Solar Energy Solar = Sun O The suns energy is captured by the panels and converted into useable energy.

Hydroelectric Energy Hydro = Water O The energy of moving water is converted into usable energy. O Electricity is constantly generated.

Geothermal O Geo = Earth O Thermal = Heat

Biomass Energy O Bio = Life O Mass = Matter O Biomass Energy = plant and animal WASTE is used to produce biofuels (methanol, natural gas, oil).

Bioconversion O Is the change of ORGANIC materials (plant or animal waste) into useable products or energy sources.
