China mainly use non-renewable sources of energy such as coal. However, they are acknowledging and trying to increase the use of renewable sources of energy. The largest source of renewable energy is hydroelectric power from dams such as the Three Gorges Dams.
Lack of energy is starting to become a exponential problem in China, and in cities such as Shanghai, certain factories are only allowed to operate during night time so there will enough electricity during the day time.

The energy in wind used to generate electricity is?
potential energy
Can moving Water be used to generate electricity?
Technically speaking, the molecular movement of water and how fast the molecules vibrate, the energy of that can be captured and the form of energy can be used to generate electricity. They use the hoover dam to do that.
Application of wind energy?
Windmills are used to drive generators and generate electricity.
What energy transformation occurs in a windmill used to generate electricity?
kinetic energy (potential energy) which transfers to mechanical energy
How do you conserve wind energy?
Wind energy, or rather, electricity produced from wind energy, can be stored in batteries. It can also be used to pump water uphill. This water can then be used later when needed to generate electricity (hydro-electricity).
The energy in wind used to generate electricity is?
potential energy
What is the energy source used to generate electricity?
Mechanical energy
How can geothermal energy can be used to generate electricity?
let the geothernal energy to boil the water, then use the stream to generate the electricity. it is the same way when you use coal generate the electricity. but the detail system is very complicated.
What fuels are used to generate electricity in China?
i have no idea ask a science teacher :)
What is geothermal potential energy?
It is the energy released from earth's surface. It can be used to generate electricity.
Can a dynamo be used to generate electricity?
Yes. Because a dynamo converts rotational energy into electricity.
What is the advantages of incineration?
They produce energy that can be used in homes to generate electricity
Can moving Water be used to generate electricity?
Technically speaking, the molecular movement of water and how fast the molecules vibrate, the energy of that can be captured and the form of energy can be used to generate electricity. They use the hoover dam to do that.
What is geothermal energy used to?
It is use to generate electricity from below earth's surface!!!!! Its an inexhaustible energy source that uses hot magma or hot dry rocks to generate electricity.
Why does the splitting generate electricity?
If you mean nuclear fission, then this does not generate electricity directly. The energy released is essentially light/heat energy and this is used to heat water to produce steam. The steam is then used to drive turbines/generators to produce the electricity.
How many years do you have until electricity runs out?
electricity can never run out only the energy used to generate it
What elements are commonly used to generate electricity from nuclear energy?
Uranium or Thorium.
