Renewable
Sources of Energy
_U_
SUN
Solar energy is energy that comes from the sun. Every day
the sun radiates, or sends out, an enormous amount of energy.
_E__H__M_L
Geothermal
Deep inside the Earth lies hot water and steam that can be used to heat
our homes and businesses and generate electricity cleanly and efficiently.
__N_
WIND
Wind power is a clean energy source that we can rely on for the long-term future.
One wind turbine can be sufficient to generate energy for a household.
_A__R
WATER
Hydropower or hydroelectricity refers to the conversion
of energy from flowing water into electricity.
B_O___S
Biomass
It is organic material that comes from plants and animals, and it
is a renewable source of energy.
Non-renewable Sources of
Energy
C __ A __
COAL
is a fossil fuels black or brownish-
black rock with a high amount of
carbon and hydrocarbons.
O __ L
OIL
is a fossil fuel builds up in liquid
form that is formed from the
remains of tiny sea plants and
animals that died a hundred of
millions years ago.
N __ T __ R__L G __ S
NATURAL GAS
is a non-renewable fossil fuel
formed deep beneath the earth's
surface from the remains of tiny
sea plants and animals that died a
million years ago.

NUCLEAR ENERGY 
is a non-renewable energy
source that comes from the
nucleus of atoms.
Renewable Source of
Energy
(Technology Used/ Utilized)
Photovoltaic (PV)
panels
It is also called as solar cells, this are electronic devices
that convert sunlight directly into electricity.
Wind
turbines
It converts the kinetic energy in the wind into mechanical power.
It is the opposite of a fan. Instead of using electricity to make
wind, like a fan, wind turbines use wind to make electricity.
Spiral Pump
also known as water wheel pump is a hydraulic
machine that pumps water without electricity. Spiral
pump is an environmental-friendly machine.
Dry Steam power plant
Dry Steam power plant The steam travels directly to a turbine, which
drives a generator that produces electricity. The steam eliminates the
need to burn fossil fuels to run the turbine (also eliminating the need to
transport and store fuels).
Biomass Gasification
Is an endothermic thermal conversion technology
where a solid fuel is converted into a combustible gas.
Non-renewable Source of
Energy
(Technology Used/ Utilized)
Steam Turbine Generator
is the primary power conversion component of the power
plant. The function of the steam turbine generator is to convert
the thermal energy of the steam from the steam generator to
electrical energy.
Oil Pump Jack
is the over ground drive for a reciprocating piston
pump in an oil well. The arrangement is commonly
used for onshore wells producing little oil.
Drilling Rig
It can be massive structures housing equipment used
to drill water wells, oil wells, or natural gas extraction
Cooling Tower
is a heat rejection device that rejects waste heat to the
atmosphere through the cooling of a water stream to a
lower temperature.
Renewable Source of Energy

(Relation to Society)
Advantages to the society
1. They’ll never run out. That’s right. These
natural energy sources can replace themselves,
making them sustainable and abundant natural
resources.
2. They don’t damage our planet. These clean energy
sources are non-pollutant, produce minimal or no
waste products, and don’t contribute to global
warming - great news for the environment!
3. They’re low-maintenance energy sources. Renewable
energy facilities tend to require less maintenance than
traditional generators. And as they come from natural,
abundant resources, the operating costs are generally lower
too.
4. They’re good news for regional areas. As most
renewable energy projects are located in regional areas
- away from the big cities - they can bring economic
benefits to these places. For example, this could come
from more people using local services.
Disadvantages to the society
1. Unreliable weather can affect energy supply. As
renewable energy often relies on certain weather
conditions, this can impact the reliability of a constant
energy supply.
2. It’s hard to produce the same amounts as non-
renewable sources. It can be difficult to generate
quantities of electricity that are as large as those
produced by traditional fossil fuel generators.
Non-Renewable Source of Energy

(Relation to Society)
What's good about non-
renewable energy sources?
• Lots available: Humans have invested a
lot of time, effort and money into obtaining
fossil fuels, so we now have a ready supply.
• Easier to find: Fossil fuels can be found
all over the world, with many areas already
identified as being rich in these resources.
• Very efficient: Fossil fuels can generate a
lot of energy, even from just a small amount
of fuel.
• Simpler to transport: Fossil fuels can be
easily transported, e.g. using underground
pipes to move oil and gas.
• Easy set-up: A fossil fuel plant can be set
up at any location, as long as there is a large
quantity of fuel to generate power.
What's bad about non-renewable
energy sources?
• Environmental pollution: Burning fossil fuels
releases carbon dioxide, which is directly linked to
global warming – so fossil fuels are very damaging to
the health of our planet.
• Huge amounts of fuel reserves: To keep power
stations working, you need truckloads of fuel. This can
make energy generation very expensive.
• They will run out: Once the earth's supplies of
fossil fuels have been used up, they can't be renewed
(at least not for several hundred million years), so we
won't be able to use them for our rising power needs.
• Oil spills: The huge tankers transporting oil sometimes
crash and spill their contents into the sea and nearby
coast. This is disastrous for the ocean and land, and can
be deadly for the animals that live there.
• Rising costs: As just a few countries hold a large
amount of fossil fuels, fuel prices can rise without warning.
• Public health issues: Because of all their nasty air
pollution, burning fossil fuels can lead to lung problems
and asthma attacks in humans.
• Health risks to workers: Mining for coal or drilling for
oil can be very dangerous, resulting in a large number of
diseases, injuries and deaths every year.
Conclusion
Energy does all sorts of things for us. It moves
our cars, cooks our food, plays our favourite songs
and provides light and heat for our homes. Energy
also helps our bodies grow and our minds think.
In fact, everything we see around is actually made
up of empty space and atoms are the ones that
create matter which are made up all of energy.
