ENERGY :warning: :warning:
Sources
:recycle:
Household uses :pencil2:
The operating for electrical appliances, heating systems, hot water systems, heat for cooking and means of transport, for example.
Indusatrial uses :red_flag:
The operating of factories and companies, construction, agriculture and so on.
Electricity :lightning:
Most widely used form of energy :black_right_pointing_double_triangle_with_vertical_bar:
It can be easily transformed and transported long distances :bulb:
Electric Power Plants :seedling:
Electric power plants are facilities where pnmary or secondary energy is transformed into electricity
Conventional Electric Power Plants :atom_symbol:
Nuclear Power Plants :explode:
This type of plant includes a nuclear fission reactor that produces the pressurised steam needed to move the turbine rotor. Uranium ts the main fuel used
Fossil fuel thermal powerplant :fuelpump:
At this type of power plant, water is heated in a boiler by the heat generated from the combustion of a fossil fuel, usually natural gas or coal.
Combined cycle power plants :cyclone:
Electricity is generated as a result of two combined cycles, a cycle that uses air and gas, and a conventional thermal cycle During the first cycle, a gas turbine is used that includes a compressor
Hydroelectric powerplants :potable_water:
This type of power plant uses the potential energy provided by the height of the stored water in a dam, converting it into knetic energy.
Non-Conventional Electric power plants :forbidden:
The environmental problems caused by conventional power plants have led to the creation and development of non-conventional or alternative energy power plants
Wind Power Plants an Farms :wind_blowing_face:
These power plants use the kinetic energy uf the wind to move
the blades of a rotor at the top of a tower, this is referred to as the
wind turbine
Solar Power Plants :sunny:
These plants use the energy from the sun There are two main types of installation: photo-thermal and photovoltaic power plants
Geothermal power plants :thermometer:
These plants use the heat found at deep levels in the earth. This heat may reach the surface in the form of steam, gases or hot water.
Biomass Thermal Power Plants :biohazard_sign:
Biomass consists of all organic compounds that are produced through natural processes They may come from the following sources.
Forestry
Crops
Waste
Ocean power plant :ocean:
These power plants use the energy from the seas and the oceans. The concept is to use three types of energy from the sea.
Enviromental impact :national_park:
The building and operating of an ejectncai power plant results in an ecological change in that region.
Extraction of natural resources :compression:
Fuel transport :fuelpump:
Electricity Generation :electric_plug:
Final energy use :raised_hand_with_fingers_splayed::skin-tone-2:
