Alternative energy sources
Solar
The most abundant renewable energy source
Does not emit green house gasses
Sometimes it’s not available like at night
Solar PV panels are a thing
Geothermal
Heat is extracted from deep in The earth
Electricity is produced from steam
Very reliable
Heat from the earths core
They use water and steam to extract heat
Upfront cost is way more expensive then most other ways of renewable sou ces, because of research cost
Most effective in areas of volcanic activity
We can all melt from us taking water from the earth
Wind
Power generated
Different speeds due to location,season,and surrounding structers
Clean energy
The wind does not always blow
Cost more than traditional sources of electricty
Noise,birds,and land availability are disvantage
Biomass
Combustion is used in the process of making electricty
Some material is turned into bio oil
Renewable energy
Uses anaerobic and biodegradation to brake down bio materials to a oily substance
Hydroelectric
Power from moving water
There are two types of hydroelectricity production
forms, dams, and run of river.
