2. HYDROPOWER Hydropower [water power] Renewable
It goes through a dam and turns turbines to make energy.
Dams cause animal habitat floods.
3.3% is used throughout the U.S.

3. SOLAR ENERGY Solar power comes from the suns heat.
We use solar panels that take the suns heat and turns into electricity.
.1% of US electricity comes from solar power.
Takes away the suns heat.
Is renewable.
Is a lot of money

4. GEOTHERMAL Geothermal comes from inside the earth.
Costs a lot of money to drill.
The heat from below ground makes steam that turns turbines.

4% of us energy comes biomass.
Very few refineries
Renewable

8. FOSSIL FULES
It comes from dead plants and animals that died millions of years ago.
It is changed into electricity in a refinery.
81% of us electricity comes from fossil fuels.
It is nonrenewable and takes millions of years to form.
We have a lot of it.

9. ENERGY TRANSFORMATION
Many natural sources can be turned into electricity.
We did two experiments about wind and solar power. We turned them into electricity.
