Describe three different ways that a power company might produce steam to turn a turbine?

There are many different ways to heat water hot enough to produce steam to turn a turbine, including:heat energy produced by burning coalheat energy produced by waste incinerationheat energy produced by a controlled nuclear chain reactionheat energy extracted from hot rocks deep undergroundconverting sunlight to heat energyThere are relatively few ways that the steam is converted back to water.


What are some ways in which nuclear energy maybe used more efficiently and economically in the Caribbean?

I don't see any reason to think nuclear energy could be used more efficiently there than elsewhere


How can hydroelectric energy be used?

by plant produced.+++Four people found that useful?1) The word "energy" is superfluous: if it's hydroelectric it's obviously electrical energy, so you need only to call it "hydroelectricity". Electricity is a form of energy.2) How it's used: to power anything needing electricity, from factories, schools, hospitals etc, to homes and the appliances in them, including your computer or 'phone charger.Hydroelectric energy is used in the same way that other energy forms are used. The falling water rotates a turbine connected to the generator that produces the electricity. This electricity is then transported to be used to power every day household supplies. Hydroelectric energy is used in various ways. This is mainly used as a source of producing electricity as the water flows through the turbines.OKHydroelctric energy, today, is used in multiple ways. The energy harnessed by the water flowing threw the dams or reservios is transported by wires to a power plant and then transfered into different forms of energy. The energy tis is used, is used for powering home, buisness, factories, and many more places.


How does hydroelectric energy affect the environment in bad ways?

When people talk about new sources of energy do they mean discovering new sources of energy or new ways to capture and convert energy?

I think it can refer to either.

Can lightning's energy be caugt stored and use?

As far as I know, this hasn't been done yet. You might invent something yourself. The way I see it: * Lightning does, indeed, have useful energy, which might be harnessed in theory. Probably you don't even need to wait for a lightning; there is a potential difference (i.e., a voltage) between the upper and the lower atmosphere. * Harnessing it may result in some serious technical difficulties - for example, the huge voltages involved. Also, the energy density in the atmosphere might be rather low. I believe the reason lightning energy has not been harnessed so far is that there are other, easier, ways to get energy. It has not been possible as yet.


How is electricity harnessed?

It is NOT harnessed by getting zapped by lightning. It can be harnessed in a variety of ways. (i.e. wind, water, battery power.) Please and thank you, Adria xx
