100 percent of the electricity generated in Niger is produced in thermal generating plants using fossil fuels.
To produce or make electricity ___ it?
To produce or make electricity is to generate it. Some of the common ways of generating electricity include using wind power, geothermal energy and burning fossil fuels among others.
Do Buddhists use electricity from fossil fuel?
Yes. At least countries with a high Buddhist population generate energy by burning fossil fuels. China is a good example. It uses natural gas, oil and coal in generating heat and electricity.
What produce or makes electricity is to it?
generate
What types of energy transformations are in a fossil fuel power station?
Chemical > Thermal > Kinetic > Electrical
Nations built nuclear electricity generating plants because?
they did not want to be dependent on nonrenewable fossil fuels
Why is hydroelectric source of energy better than fuels for generating electrical energy?
hydroelectric energy is free to the fuel fossil
What happens to the lost energy when fossil fuel is used to generate electricity?
Energy is never lost, it is transformed into different types or transferred into different systems. Some of this is useful energy, for example thermal energy used to power a turbine or generator. Some of this thermal energy is not useful, and instead just heats up the fuel container or components of the generator. This energy has still come from the fossil fuel being burned, but it has not been transferred into the system for generating electricity.
Why would solar energy be a good source of energy for generating electricity?
The best source of much of world's energy is the sun's energy, which provides the earth light and heat. Solar technology directly transforms the sun's unlimited energy into electrical energy. That is why we can consider solar energy as the best source of generating electricity.
Which fuels are used for generating electricity in Africa?
Mostly fossil fuels but there is one nuclear plant in South Africa
What are different ways of generating energy?
Solar power, wind power, tidal power, and fossil fuels are ways to get energy.
