What is renewable energy
• Renewable energy sources are things like:
solar energy,wind,energy and geothermal,
which can be used over and over again. Fore
example solar energy we can use for
electricity from solar panels and wind is used
wind turbines. Geothermal is used to produce
electricity from heated rocks.
Energy transfer diagrams
This is an energy transfer diagram.
• A fossil fuel power station produces electricity
by burning fossil fuels, such as natural gas,
coal, and petroleum. Heat is produced by
burning one of these fuels. The heat converts
water into steam. The steam is then used to
run a turbine and get electricity.
• Fossil fuels like methane and gasoline
contains carbon. When these fuels are
burned, they react with oxygen witch
produces carbon dioxide. When these are
burned they cause smoke helping with the
global warming.
