The document discusses conventional and non-conventional energy resources. Conventional resources include firewood, coal, petroleum, and natural gas which have long been used. Non-conventional or renewable resources include solar energy, wind energy, hydel power, nuclear energy, geo-thermal energy, tidal energy, and bio-gas. It provides brief descriptions of each resource, how it is used to generate energy, and its importance.

2. The sources from which we draw power to drive our
daily needs and actions.

3.  Conventional Resources :-
Those which have been in a common use for a long time.
 Non-Conventional Resources:-
Non conventional energy resources is energy that is
renewable. That means that it will replenish itself naturally.

4.  Firewood
 Coal
 Petroleum
 Natural Gas
 Hydel Power

5.  Solar energy
 Wind energy
 Nuclear energy
 Geo-thermal energy
 Tidal energy
 Bio-gas

7.  It is widely used for cooking & heating.
 In our country, more 50% of energy comes from
villagers.

8.  Most abundantly found fossil fuel.
 Generated thermal power.
 It is also called as Buried Sunshine.

9.  Products of petroleum are used from many year to
light fire .
 Products of petroleum are used for driving vehicle.

10.  It is found with petroleum depoists and is released
when crude oil is bought to the surface.
 Accounts for about 15% of electricity generated
quickly becoming the fuel of choice.

11.  Rain water stored in dams is made to fall from
heights. The falling water flows through pipes in the
dams thus generating electricity called as hydro
electricity.
 One fourth of world's electricity is produced by
hydel power.

12.  Sun is the major resource for this energy.
 Energy trapped from this can be used in solar cells.

13.  Wind used near coastal areas and high ridges.
 Its is an inexhaustible energy.

14.  Splitting uranium atoms produces a great deal of
heat energy that is processed into electrical energy
in nuclear plants.

15.  Utilizes the Earth’s inner heated rocks to heat water
that reaches these areas through seismic faults.
 This water is turned to steam them captured to
operate steam-powered generators.

16.  Energy generated by tides are called tidal energy.
 They can be harnessed by building dams at narrow
openings of the sea.

17.  Uses heat generated from burning solid municipal
waste to heat water to operate steam powered
generators.
