10 renewable resources?
They include: Tidal Power, Wave Power, Solar Power, Wind Power, Hydroelectricity, Radiant Energy, Geothermal Power, Biomass, Compressed Natural Gas and Nuclear Power. There are many sources of energy that are renewable and considered to be environmentally friendly and harness natural processes.
What is the difference between solar energy and thermal energy?
Solar EnergySolar energy is "Alternative Energy", which does no generate from fossil fuels. It is a renewable source of energy received from the sun. Other renewable sources of energy are: hydroelectric, geothermal, biomass and wind energy. It is estimated that earth receives 10 times more energy from the sun than the earth's supply of fossil fuels.Thermal EnergyThermal energy or heat energy is the amount of internal kinetic energy of atoms and molecules that flows from warmer to a cooler environment.
Is electricity energy renewable or not?
Everywhere! A little...To varying degrees (and mostly not very large), everywhere in the world! Although most of the world runs on fossil fuels, people in all corners of the world use renewable energy sources to some extent. mainly farms
Will you save money if the electricity you use is from renewable energy sources?
You can depending on where you live, for example my previous Science teacher was from Canada and her electrical bill was less because she lived near a hydroelectric plant. In addition if you invest in a renewable generator capable of powering your entire house, you can start saving money after a period of about 10 years.
How does renewable energy work?
Energy is obtained from renewable energy sources (solar, wind, water, hydro, tidal and wave, geothermal, ocean thermal, biomass and bio-fuel among others) and turned into electrical energy. This electricity is just the same as any other electricity and is used normally. Energy from renewable sources does not produce extra carbon dioxide (global warming) to the carbon cycle and is nearly free after the initial set up and maintenance costs.

How efficient is gas?
Not very because its a fossi fuel and they are not ad never will be renewable Sources: Worked at Npower for 10 years as a senior gas official.

Approximately how much of global electricity output is produced from renewable energy 1 percent 5 percent 10 percent 20 percent?
Renewable Energy sources are everything below from Biomass down. Total 8.24% The most recent figures for electricity production worldwide are: # Oil 37% # Coal 25% # Gas 23% # Nuclear 6% # Biomass 4% # Hydro 3% # Solar Heat 0.5% # Wind 0.3% # Geothermal 0.2% # Biofuels 0.2% # Solar Photovoltaic 0.04%
Give a possible reason why the government wants to get 10 percent of the UK's energy from renewable energy by 2010?
fossil fuels are running out and to much CO2 in the air
Why is the top of the energy prymaid get smaller at the top?
Energy is lost mainly as heat. So remember every time energy is transferred to another organism 90% is lost and only 10% goes on.
