what percentage of electricity produced in the UK comes from burning fossil fuels ?
fossil fuels
Fossil fuels
When fossil fuels burn, oxygen is used as the gas that reacts with the carbon in the fuel to produce carbon dioxide. This process is known as combustion and is the reason why carbon dioxide is released as a byproduct of burning fossil fuels.
Fossil fuels are produced by the decomposition of animal and vegetable matter over time
35% of the world's commercial energy is produced from coal
Not directly. Though many are produced from other fossil fuels.
When fossil fuels are burnt, carbon dioxide (CO2) is produced as a byproduct along with water vapor and other pollutants like carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides.
There are many sources of energy that can be converted to electric energy. In many countries, most electric energy is produced by fossil fuels -- mostly coal, some natural gas, etc. However, in a few countries such as France and Belgium, most electric energy is produced from something other than fossil fuels. What can you use instead of fossil fuels?
