Solar Power
Wind Power
Hydroelectric Power
Tide - multiple ways
Gravity - dams
Geothermal
Biomass
burning:
trash
plants
Nuclear - if you consider breeder reactors, but usually are not counted because we will ultimately run out of fissionable Uranium and plutonium using any means in about 4 billion years (For more info http://www.phyast.pitt.edu/~blc/book/BOOK.html by Bernard Cohen)Will we be here when we run out? Who knows. Your choice if you want to include it. Don't know if you care but if you do read a little about it.

What are examples of alternatives forms of energy?
Alternative forms of energy are healthy and reusable types of energy that generate power and electricity. There are seven types of alternative forms of energy. They areBiopower, Geothermal, Hydroelectric, Hydrogen, Solar, Tidal/Ocean, and Wind. Trust me on this I'm a fag
What is the principle of hydro electricity?
The water flowing in the river possesses two types of energy:the kinetic energy due to flow of waterpotential energy due to the height of water.In hydroelectric power plants, the kinetic energy of the water is utilized to generate electricity.
Which types of power do not use a turbine to generate electricity?
Solar
What types of energy does a light bulb use?
electric energy
How electric current generate?
electric current generate so many types one of mechanical energy convert electrical energy by using generator

What are the types of energy and what are their uses?
WHAT IS SOLAR AND THE USE Solar- Radiation from the sun that can produce heal , generate electricity or cause chemical reaction.
In what ways is mechanical energy used to generate other forms of energy?
That really depends on the type of energy generated. One common method is to use a generator to generate electricity; this can then easily be transported to different places, and later convert to other types of energy.
What types of energy are used at home?
Hydroelectric power (from a dam), nuclear energy, solar power and wind power generate electricity. Natural gas is used for heating. Solar (the sun) can produce heat and electricity.
