Reusable Energy Resources

These are some ways in which we can preserve and reuse our energy sources.

AB
Solar Heating Using the sun to heat and light our buildings
Solar hot waterA flat-plate collector allows you to have hot water
WindmillUsed for pumping water or grinding grain
Geothermal ElectricityWhen steam rotates a turbnine that activates a generator, it produces geothermal electricity
Geothermal reservoirsAre found a couple of miles beneath Earths surface can be used to produce heat
biomassHeat can be used to chemically convert biomass (garbage) into a fuel oil
biofuelswhen biomass is converted directly into liquid fuels, it is called biofuel
Biopowerbiopower is the use of biomass to generate electricity
Geothermal Heat Pumpsgeothermal heat pumps keep buildings heated or cool by pumping heat from the earth's upper crust
HydropowerFlowing water creates energy that can be captured and turned into electricity.
Ocean energyThis is energy produced by the ocean
Thermal energyEnergy from the suns heat
Mechanical energyEnergy from the ocean's tides and waves.
