energy resources and their use & wind and solar power
non renewable energy resources will run out one day
1) oil
2) coal
non renewable energy resources are fossil fuels and nuclear fuel fossil fuels are natural resources that from underground over millions of years they are typically burnt to provide energy the main ones are :
3) natural gas
all will run out all cause harm and damage to the environment but they provide most of out energy
renewable energy resources will never run out
4) hydro-electric
5) bio-fuel
3) water waves
6) tides
2) wind
7) geothermal
1) the sun (solar)
they will never run out they all do damage to the environment but in less nasty ways they don't provide as much energy
can be used for transport
non renewable energy resources
coal is used in some old fashioned steam trains to boil water to produce steam
petrol and disel powerd veichles use fuel created from oil
renewable resources
vehicles than run on pure bio fuel or a mix of bio fuel and petrol or deiseal
and for heating
non renewable
coal is most commonly burnt in fireplaces
electrical heaters which use electricity from non renewable resources
natura gas is most widely used fuel for heating homes its used to heat water which is then pumped into radiators
renewable
a geothermal heat pump uses geothermal energy resources
solar water heaters work by using the sun to heat water which is then pumped into radiators
burning bio fuels or using electricity generated from renewable resources can also be used for heating
