Fossil Fuels. The sun, wind and heat from the earth core is continuously being produced. Fossil Fuels were created over a long period of time and required a lot of heat and pressure to be created which is why they are not considered to be renewable.

Why fossil and solar energy the same?

fossil energy is not same as solar energy. Fossil : Its a non renewable energy.but Solar is renewable Energy,its green and eco friendly


What is the hypothesis of energy resources?

Energy resources include fossil fuel (as coal, natural gas, and oil), renewable energy resources (as solar energy, wind energy, biomass, geothermal energy, ...), and nuclear energy (based on fission and/or fusion).


What is the difference between solar energy and thermal energy?

Solar EnergySolar energy is "Alternative Energy", which does no generate from fossil fuels. It is a renewable source of energy received from the sun. Other renewable sources of energy are: hydroelectric, geothermal, biomass and wind energy. It is estimated that earth receives 10 times more energy from the sun than the earth's supply of fossil fuels.Thermal EnergyThermal energy or heat energy is the amount of internal kinetic energy of atoms and molecules that flows from warmer to a cooler environment.


What energy sources is not renewable?

Energy from the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) is non-renewable.


Solar energywindand geothermal are what type of energy resource?

Fossil fuels - coal, natural gas, oil. Nuclear - uranium. Solar - energy from the sun. Hydro - energy from moving water. Geothermal - energy from hot rocks under the earth's surface. Wind - energy from the wind. Tidal - energy from rise and fall of tides. Waves - energy from ocean waves. Biomass - energy from burning plant material. Incinerators - energy from burning trash.

Is geothermal energy a fossil fuel?

No. Fossil fuels are coal, oil and natural gas. Geothermal energy is a clean renewable energy powered by the heat from the centre of the earth. It is the only renewable energy whose power does not come from the sun.

Does geothermal energy help fix pollution?

Yes. Geothermal energy is clean and renewable, so it decreases the use of fossil fuels and reduces CO2 emissions.


Is geothermal energy good for your environment?

Yes, geothermal energy, like all renewable energy, emits no pollution or greenhouse gases, so, compared to fossil fuel energy, is good for the environment.


What energy other than fossil fuels are resources?

Energy resources that are not fossil fuels are often collectively called "renewable resources." These include wind, solar, hydroelectric, geothermal energy sources.


How you will derive energy to run your machines where there are no fossil fuels?

From renewable sources of energy like solar, wind, hydro, geothermal and many others.


How is geothermal energy an alternative energy?

Geothermal energy is a renewable source of energy because it can be re-used, unlike fossil fuels. Geo- means earth, and -thermal means heat. A power plant will use the heat energy found deep in the earth to create electricity. Since the thermal energy of the earth will never go away, geothermal energy is a renewable source.


What are some examples of renewable non-renewable and inexhaustible resources?

Examples of non-renewable energy are coal, oil, natural gas, uranium and fossil fuels. Ex. of renewable energy are animals, food, and biomass. Ex. of inexhaustible energy are wind, solar, geothermal, and hydroelectric.


How can you prevent burning fossil fuels?

By using alternatives, such as renewable energy makers, renewable energy (solar, wind, water, hydro, tidal and wave, geothermal, ocean thermal, biomass, biofuel and hydrogen).


What energy sources did we used to use?
