Which is used more renewable or non-renewable energy?
non renewable energy
How is energy manufactured?
Right now, coal and nuclear plants are the main sources of power. There are currently many efforts to shift this to renewable energy sources such as geothermal energy, solar energy, etc. The main reason for why renewable energy sources are currently not the main source is because their output cannot be adjusted during peak hours or other times of higher demand. In many cases, renewable energy plants are more expensive to operate as well. As for non-renewable energy sources, coal and nuclear plants can simply adjust their output during peak hours. The wind may die down or a storm may block the sun during peak hours, reducing the effectiveness of renewable power.
What energy can be recycled?
Energy just changes to different forms, so "recycle" might not be the right word. However, if you mean more like what *sources* of energy can be reused... things like solar power, hydroelectric power, and wind energy are renewable sources. Fossil fuels aren't... or not in the near-term, since it takes a very, very long time to renew those sources.
Is corn a renewable energy resource?
Yes, more corn can be grown, so it is renewable as a resource.
How do you preserve energy resources for the future?
The only way to preserve them is not to use them, but it's more sensible to go on using them (which we will do come what may), but to use them more economically, and to use renewable energy where possible
Why use renewable energy sources?
because it is more efficiant than any other form of energy
Is energy derived from renewable sources better than that produced from fossil fuels?
Fossil fuels are non-renewable so have a finite supply. This means that they will eventually run out. They also produce carbon dioxide when burnt which contributes towards global warming. Renewable sources do not pollute the atmosphere and do not run out. Therefore renewable sources are better for the environment, but fossil fuels give more energy per mass. Which is better depends on what you look for, environment and sustainability or high density of energy. Renewable energy still gives out sufficient energy, so renewable sources are better.
How much electricity comes from renewable sources at present?
Around 20% of world electricity is from renewable energy in 2009. More than 80% of the renewable energy use is hydroelectric which had a lot of installation limit. Progress on renewable energy is rather slow to the energy crisis.
Why people research renewable energy?
In an attempt to provide access to more renewable and clean sources of daily necessity. See DOE.gov
Give three more examples of renewable energy resources?
Renewable energy! Solar energy, wind power, hydro power and Geothermal power. Hope i helped:)
Benefits of using crude oil compared to renewable sources?
It is fresh so it can do more. It takes energy to covert the resources into renewable resources.
What are the names of all the kinds of energy?
there is wind energy,light,heat,sound and some more Edit: Above are just renewable energy sources. Deferent energy sources are: Biofuel Fossil fuel Nuclear energy
Which is used more renewable or non-renewable energy?
non renewable energy
Many energy sources are renewable but cost more to use than fossil fuels. True or false?
true
What is efficient about renewable energy?
I think, at this moment very important of renewable energy because recently ends of fossil fuel in the world and other non renewable energy sources is not available in the world. non renewable energy is more complex system and more costly. but renewable energy is endless of input energy or initial energy, it reproduce itself, it's whole life me and your continuously give the energy sources e.g: sun, wind,water(Tidal). it's also important, it's power produced without pollution.
Why do people use fossil fuels instead of renewable energy?
Although renewable energy sources are better for the planet, they are not so good for your pocket. Solar panels etc. can cost alot of money to install, but governments are slowly introducing a rebate or cash back for people who do turn to renewable energy.
