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.


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


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.


How would Windmills be used for the future?

I hope their widespread use is not too far in the future. They must be used in conjunction with other clean energy sources, such as solar, tidal, and wave energy. They can be used on a local scale, such as on the tops of multi story buildings to provide lighting, air conditioning and power for computers. They can also be used in large arrays floating out to sea, where the wind is most constant, to produce electricity for industrial and domestic use. Many consider them ugly, but the consequences of more CO2 are a lot uglier.


Who could improvements in energy efficiency be achieved?

Energy efficiency is one of the largest and lowest cost ways to extend our world's energy supplies and reduce GHG emissions. Curbing demand reduces the amount of oil, natural gas, coal, and other energy sources that must be developed and delivered. Gains in energy efficiency through 2030 will curb energy-demand growth by about 65 percent. - more efficient vehicles -public transport being used -and anything else that preserves fossil fuels, such as all sources of renewable energy. geothermal energy, more people with solar panel housing. by 2020 the government hope for all new buildings to be energy efficient. hope this helps. im answering the same question for my georgraphy case study -.-

Why might you need to use more of there energy source in the future?

Other sources of energy that will not run out are tidal energy, from the rise and fall of Earth's ocean.


How was energy of the future made up?

For the future, you should use the phrase "will be", not "was". And nobody really knows what the energy use in the future will look like. However, it seems likely that energy sources that are more sustainable than burning fossil fuels will have to be used eventually, since the fossil fuels are quickly getting used up. These might include solar energy, wind energy, energy from waves, nuclear fusion, tidal energy, and geothermal energy.


What might happen if we don't develop more renewable energy sources?

we will soon become very low in energy and have very few electricity consumers


What are the sources of chemical energy?

The main sources of chemical energy are compounds. Some of the common energy sources include gas, food, oil and so many more.


Are there any alternative energy sources that may be more beneficial?

There are severral alternative energy sources that are more beneficial than current ones, including eolic and solar sources.


What energy sources do you think people will use in the future?

Definitely, in the long run, people will have to use energy sources that are sustainable - that is, that can continue being used for millions of years, and without too much damage to the environment. This may eventually include solar energy, wind energy, hydroelectric power, fusion, and perhaps a few more.

Why is the world unable to detach itself from conventional energy sources?

Pure economics. It costs more to use "non-conventional" energy sources.


Which forms of energy that are considered to be green?

The two main sources of energy that are considered to be "green" are wind and solar. Energy generated by wind power, or energy created by solar rays are natural energy sources. There is more article information at how-tobegreen.blogspot.com/ if you want to learn more.


Why is nonrenewable energy easier to use?

nonrenewable energy sources are easier to use as their technologies are well established since thousands of years. Also, they are more reliable energy sources.


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
