The amount of CO2 generated from electricity (kWh) is dependant upon the way the electricity is generated. Burning a barrel of oil to produce electricity yields far more CO2 than generating the same amount of electricity from wind or water. One should contact their electricity provider to get a break-down of how the electricity is generated.
One of two ways: 1. Drop large amounts of water through turbines (generators) and electricity is created in the turbine windings. 2. Press water at high pressure through micro-tubes in a disk of glass. A small amount of electricity is generated. But, it takes electricity to pump the water up to high pressure, so no new energy can be created.
Yes, the more sunlight there is, the more electricity is generated.
Most hydroelectricity is generated from large dams built across large rivers. A smaller amount comes from turbines in rivers, bays and swift-moving tidal races.
Could be a lot if the amount of charge is low as in static electricity.
Electricity is generated by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas). Fossil fuels are finite and polluting, and are the main cause of global warming, not to mention the human toll taken on coal miners, soldiers in the Iraq War and oil being a commodity tightly controlled by few countries and having major economic impact on the entire world. Reducing one's use of electricity reduces reliance on coal and petroleum along with the amount on one's utility bill. Renewable energy like wind turbines and solar energy are being utilized more and more to generate electricity.
Currently (2010) around 2.4% This number is increasing yearly because of new installations of wind turbines. These are often constructed in areas with low population density and with high average wind speeds. In 2009 about 1.8 percent of the electricity generated in the United States was generated by wind power. This amount has been increasing by a fraction of a percent each year for the last several years. Texas generates the most power by wind of any state, over 14 billion kilowatt-hours in 2009. Iowa generates the most power by wind as a percentage of all the electricity generated in the state, 14.2% in 2009.
Although very little electricity is given off by the catheter, the instrument does generate a large amount of heat.
Bimetal strips can be used for thermocouples. The two metals will have different expansion rates and the difference will generate a small amount of electricity. The electricity generated can be collated to a given temperature. Your mom
Hydroelectricity is generated by huge amount of water pouring through electric turbines in a water dam. Great Coulee Dam, Hoover Dam, and Lower Granite Dam are some that I can think of.
Hydroelectricity is electricity generated by hydropower. This is the production of power through the use of gravity or flow to spins water turbine and generator. The amount of electricity produced depends on many things. Some of the things that it depends on are the volume, the amount of pressure, and the difference in height between the reservoir, or source of water, and where it flows out.

wind turbines saves a huge amount of energy inside it
