Why does most of British Columbia's electricity come from hydroelectric energy?
In British Columbia, hydroelectric energy is clean, renewable, abundant and relatively inexpensive.
Is hydroelectric energy clean?
It is one of the cleanest energy sources out there. What is happening to produce hydroelectric energy is that water is spinning a turbine and that turbine produces electricity. There is no fuels burning to produce it. The most harmful part of the production is the initial setup of the turbine (located at damns). There is no 100% clean energy. If it generates sound, then it can be considered pollution. There is waste in refining the materials to make it.
In the near future where will most electricity come from?
In the near future, most electricity will come from hydroelectric, Solar and Wind energy technology and or a mixture of all
What is most energy resources used to produce?
Electricity
What is the most common use for nuclear energy?
To produce electricity
What is the most widely source of renewable energy in the world today?
Fossil fuels have been used to produce the greatest amount of electricity. Following fossil fuels is renewable energies, which some argue, will one day be the biggest source of electricity.
What energy source is used to produce most of the electricity you used today?
solar energy
What energy source is used to produce most of the electricity used today?
solar energy
What is one of the most important applications of nuclear energy?
To produce electricity
What would electricity be like in the near future?
Nuclear energy will run out in 2,100 AD and fossil fuels will run out in 2,300 AD. After that, clean and renewable energy will be commonly used. In the near future, most electricity will come from hydroelectric energy and geothermal energy.
What is the most likely explanation for why China built this dam?
China's huge population requires electricity that a hydroelectric power plant can help produce. (Study Island)
What is electricity made by water called?
Water Electricity is electricity obtained from hydropower. Most hydroelectric power comes from the potential energy of dammed water driving a water turbine and generator. Less common variations make use of water's kinetic energy or undammed sources such as tidal power. Hydroelectricity is a renewable energy source.
