Difference between conventional and non conventional resource of energy?
The difference between conventional and non conventional energy resources is that conventional energy resources are much more common. An example of a conventional energy resource would be oil, a non conventional energy resource would be solar power.
What are the disadvantages of hydroelectric power plants?
The advantages counterbalance the disadvantages so there aren't disadvantages.
Difference between conventional and non conventional sources of energy?
There is no absolute hard and fast definition. But I would say coal, oil, and natural gas, and hydro are conventional. Wind, solar, tidal, and biomass non-conventional. I'm not sure about nuclear.
Why non conventional energy sources are better than conventional sources of energy?
Conventional energy sources involve burning a fuel to produce heat which will drive a piston like in a car engine or make steam for a turbine like in a power plant. In this way we are converting the chemical energy into kinetic energy. This way they are more popular than non-conventional power sources. Non conventional energy sources usually do not involve burning. Solar energy, wind, water energy, geothermal and nuclear fusion are examples of non conventional energy sources. Some of these sources produce pollution and most of them will run out for as long as humans are around.
Which of the following can be called non-conventional source of energy?
The non-conventional sources of energy are: 1. Wind Energy advantages- non-polluting; low cost production of electricity once setup; safe and clean disadvantages- noise pollution; wind mills costly to setup; disturbs radio and T.V. reception; harmful to birds. 2. Solar Energy advantages- inexhaustible; non-polluting disadvantages- expensive; diffused source, so gets wasted. 3. Tidal Energy advantages- non-polluting; inexhaustible disadvantages- destroys wildlife habitat; difficult to harness 4. Nuclear energy advantages- Emits large amount of energy disadvantages- generates radioactive waste; expensive 5. Bio Gas advantages- low cost; easy to operate; makes use of bio waste disadvantages- causes green house effect 6. Geothermal Energy advantages- clean Eco friendly and always available disadvantages- located far away from cities and so costly to transport the electricity

it is used on additional steering system
What are the disadvantages of ssb over am?
drawbacks of conventional am
Is hydro power conventional or non conventional energy?

What can be called a non-conventional source of energy in 1hydro power 2therma Power 3solar power 4water power?
solar power
Why is tidal energy non conventional?
Because it has not been harnessed to any extent; it is not historically a conventional method of power generation.
What is found in both nuclear and conventional power plants?
Turbines.
What are conventional source of energy?
For electricity the main conventional fuels are coal and natural gas, and hydro power would also be considered conventional. Nuclear probably not, though it has been in use over 50 years now. For transport and the chemical industry, oil is the main conventional fuel
Advantages and disadvantages of expert power?
There are many advantages and disadvantages to expert power. One being, the power gets to their head. While it can be good by they know what they are talking about.
What are the disadvantaged of hydroelectric power?
The advantages counterbalance the disadvantages so there aren't disadvantages.
