Energy resources can be converted into forms of energy to do useful work. Nonrenewable resources like fossil fuels cannot be replaced after use or take thousands to millions of years to replace. Fossil fuels like coal, oil and natural gas formed from buried remains of ancient plants and animals and store energy from the sun. Burning fossil fuels is the primary source of electrical energy in the United States through electric generators. Renewable resources like solar, water, wind and geothermal can be replaced in nature in a short period of time.

Sustainable Energy
The document discusses various renewable and sustainable energy sources including:
Renewable energy sources that can be rapidly regenerated such as biomass from wood and biofuels from ethanol and biodiesel. Energy conservation through using less energy and energy efficiency to get the same result using less energy. Other renewable sources discussed include passive solar energy from building design, hydroelectric from water's kinetic energy, active solar from photovoltaics, geothermal from Earth's heat, wind energy from turbines, and hydrogen fuel cells.
Renewable and non renewable resources
This document classifies natural resources as either renewable or nonrenewable. Renewable resources, such as trees, plants, animals, water, sunlight and wind can be replenished naturally or through human efforts. Nonrenewable resources like coal, oil, natural gas, gold, silver and iron exist in finite amounts and get depleted once extracted from the earth. The document provides examples of renewable and nonrenewable resources and asks the reader to classify additional resources into the two categories.
Sources Of Energy Slide Show
Hydroelectric power harnesses the energy of falling water through dams to turn turbines and generate electricity. Fossil fuels like coal and oil provided energy during the Industrial Revolution but pollute the air. Nuclear fusion could become a future energy source as it is clean and virtually unlimited, but achieving controlled fusion reactions remains a challenge. Solar, wind, geothermal, and biomass are established renewable energy sources that do not pollute the environment.
Aitana Renewable and non renewable sources
This document discusses and provides examples of renewable and non-renewable energy sources. Renewable energy sources include solar energy generated from sunlight, wind power captured via wind turbines, hydraulic energy from falling or running water, and biomass derived from living organisms. Non-renewable sources that do not replenish quickly like coal, petroleum extracted from below ground, and natural gas formed from buried organic materials, are also outlined. Specific renewable technologies and characteristics of coal, petroleum, and natural gas are defined.
Resources [renewable and non renewable]
There are two types of resources: non-renewable and renewable. Non-renewable resources like coal, petroleum, natural gas and uranium are fossil fuels and minerals that were formed over millions of years and cannot be replenished on a human timescale. Renewable resources like solar, wind, hydroelectric, geothermal and biomass can be replenished naturally or through human efforts within a short period of time and do not get depleted. While non-renewable resources are finite, renewable resources are generally more sustainable as they are constantly replenished.
Comparison Between Renewable Energy and Fossil Fuels
Fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) are still essential for transportation, electricity generation, heating, plant operations, and so much more. But they are also the main source of CO2 emissions and, unlike renewable energies, are produced from exhaustible – albeit still vast – reserves.
Sonal copy
This document discusses natural resources and provides examples of renewable and non-renewable resources. Renewable resources like oxygen, wood, and water can be replenished relatively quickly, while non-renewable resources like coal, petroleum, and natural gas take extremely long periods to form and are being depleted. The document also discusses various renewable energy sources like solar, wind, and hydropower as well as non-renewable nuclear energy and natural gas. Tips are provided for conserving natural resources and switching to more sustainable practices.
RENEWABLE AND NON RENEWABLE RESOURCES
Renewable and non-renewable resources are classified based on their ability to regenerate. Renewable resources like solar, wind and hydro power can be replenished naturally, do not pollute, and are available in many locations. However, they can be inconsistent. Non-renewable resources like coal, oil and natural gas were created over millions of years and produce greenhouse gases when burned; once depleted they cannot be replaced. Conservation efforts aim to reduce consumption and waste of all natural resources.

Renewable resources
This document discusses three types of renewable resources: biomass, nuclear energy, and geothermal energy. Biomass acts as a natural battery that stores solar energy as long as it is produced sustainably. Nuclear energy is derived from nuclear fission reactions that split atoms to produce heat and boil water to generate electricity. Geothermal energy uses steam from reservoirs of hot water deep underground to power turbines that generate electricity without fossil fuels.
Conventional and non Conventional Resources
Conventional resources like coal, oil and natural gas are traditional energy sources that form over long periods from decaying organic matter. However, they release greenhouse gases when burned. Non-conventional resources such as solar, wind, hydropower and geothermal are increasingly important as they are renewable, pollution-free alternatives to conventional sources. Non-conventional energy comes from ongoing natural processes like sunlight, wind and tides rather than finite fossil fuels.

Renewable energy introduction
This document discusses renewable energy and green technology. It defines energy and lists different forms of energy, including electrical, mechanical, chemical, heat, and nuclear. Energy resources are classified as either primary/non-renewable sources like coal, oil, and natural gas, or renewable sources like solar, wind, biomass, and geothermal that recur naturally. Renewable sources are attractive because they are inexhaustible, have low operating costs, are site-specific so transmission is not needed, and cause less pollution than fossil fuels. However, renewables also have disadvantages like low energy density requiring larger plants, intermittency due to varying natural conditions, lower efficiencies, and higher upfront costs.
Energy resources
The document discusses seven main types of energy resources: solar, geothermal, hydroelectric, wind, biomass, nuclear, and fossil fuels. Solar energy comes from the sun and can be converted to thermal or electrical energy. Geothermal energy uses heat from inside the Earth, while hydroelectric harnesses the power of falling water. Wind and biomass energies respectively use air flow and plant materials as fuel sources. Nuclear energy comes from uranium atoms and is nonrenewable. Fossil fuels were formed from ancient plant and animal waste.
