Complete next text boxes by using the following words and phrases (they are not in order with regard to the slides)
2
crude oil Coal. It is found in layers, veins, coal seams natural gas. It is a natural mixture of gases, primarily methane Fossil fuels: they come from geologic formations beneath the Earth
3
Directly, by using photovoltaics Solar power. Conversion of sunlight into electricity Indirectly, using concentrated solar power, that uses lenses or mirrors to focus sunlight
4
Wind power. Conversion of wind energy by using wind turbines to make electricity Offshore wind power. To harness better wind speeds available offshore compared to on land
5
Biofuels: Bioethanol, alcohol made by fermentation from carbohydrates, and biodiesel, obtained from vegetable oils or animal fats
6
Hydropower. Energy of falling water: It comes from potential energy, driving water to a turbine
