Energy sources other than fossil fuel are called what kind of resources?
They are called renewables. (though strictly, nuclear power is not a fossil fuel and is not renewable).They are called alternative energy sources.
In what way are biomass and fossil fuels similar?
Fossil fuels and biomass fuels have similar origins. Firewood is an example of a biomass fuel. Fossil fuels are similar to biomass in that their creation also begins with microorganisms and plants using energy from the sun to fix CO2 into carbohydrates but there are several more steps in the creation of fossil fuels.
Which of these accurately describes a difference between nuclear energy and fossil fuel?
Nuclear fuel has a higher energy density than fossil fuels.
Conducts a program to promote more effcient use of energy including solar wind tidal and other renewable resources?
The program of using alternative energy promotes a more efficient use of energy including solar wind, tidal and other renewable resources. Alternative energy refers to any energy source that is an alternative to fossil fuel.
Is timber a fossil fuel?
No, it is not an example of a fossil fuel. Wood, although it is a renewable resource, is also not a renewable fuel source for the simple reason that use as a major fuel source would quickly outstrip our ability to replenish it. Evidence: the world wide destruction of rain forests and woodlands.
Why is biomass becoming more important?
Since this world's fossil fuel supply is getting lower, people need to find alternative forms of energy to continue producing electricity. Since biomass is an alternative energy source, its importance is growing in place of fossil fuels.
Why do you use biomass rather than using fossil fuel?
Biomass energy is renewable as Fossil Fuels are not
"Biomass is the future fuel"?
Biomass has many benefits, the primary one being that it cannot be depleted like fossil fuels. ... With an abundance of plants on Earth, biomass could be a primary source of renewable energy that's used as a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels
Is natural gas alternative energy?
No, natural gas is not an alternative energy. It is a fossil fuel.
Is natural gas an alternative energy?
No, natural gas is not an alternative energy. It is a fossil fuel.
Is kerogen a fossil or biomass fuel?
biomass
Compare fossil fuels and biomass as energy resources?
biomass is a sustainable fuel that can deliver a significant reduction in net carbon emissions compared with fossil fuels.
Is natural gas a biomass or fossil fuel?
Fossil fuel
Is hydroelectric fossil fuel?
No, hydroelectricity is a Alternative energy resource.
What are the strengths and drawbacks for alternative energy?
It is not a fossil fuel it is a renewable energy source
Energy sources other than fossil fuel are called what kind of resources?
They are called renewables. (though strictly, nuclear power is not a fossil fuel and is not renewable).They are called alternative energy sources.
What natural resources are used to supply energy?
Fossil fuel, the wind, the Sun, hydro and biomass
