ENERGY
Energy is defined as the ability to do work. When
work is done, energy is transferred from one object to
another.

POTENTIAL ENERGY
-Possible energy is the
energy stored in an
object because of its
position or shape.

KINETIC ENERGY
-Kinetic energy is the
energy of moving matter.
-Things with kinetic energy
can do work.
-Kinetic energy depends on
the object’s mass and
velocity.

POWER PLANT
• A power plant is an industrial facility that
generates electricity from primary energy.
• Uses one or more generators that convert
mechanical energy into electrical energy in
order to supply power to the electrical grid for
society's electrical needs.
 Solar power plants, use photovoltaic cells
(instead of a turbine) to generate this
electricity.

ELECTRICAL SOURCES

RENEWABLE NON-RENEWABLE
 produced from  energy that comes
sources that do from sources that
not deplete or can will run out or will
be replenished not be replenished
within a human's — in our lifetimes—
life time. or even in many,
many lifetimes.

GEOTHERMAL

 utilizes the heat energy


from the earth’s crust –
this heat energy heats
up rocks which, in turn,
heats up nearby
groundwater.

HYDROELECTRIC

 is derived from the energy of


falling or moving water to
generate electricity.
 among other purposes, water
is widely used to produce
electricity.
 Hydropower is a proven,
mature, predictable, and
price competitive
technology.

WIND POWER

 While an electric fan uses


electricity to produce
wind, a wind turbine uses
wind to produce
electricity.
 A wind turbine can
generate megawatts of
power, depending on
the weather conditions.

WIND POWER

 An indicator for a potential


wind farm site is the
presence of flagging trees or
trees that are bent like how a
flag would look like due to
strong winds. Because of the
vast land area a wind farm
occupies, unused areas can
be co-located with
agricultural crops or even a
solar farm.

SOLAR ENERGY

 If plants photosynthesize
using sunlight, electric-
powered technologies can
also use sunlight for
energy.
 Solar power is a variable
energy source that is
dependent on the cycle
of the sun.

BIOMASS

 Biomass refers to organic


matter from plants and
animals (microorganisms).
 Organic wastes such as crop
remains, manure, and
garbage usually left to rot,
can be used for electricity
generation.

BIOMASS

 Rice husks and/or bagasse


are burned as fuel to boil
water. The steam from the
boiling water is used to run
steam turbines, which in
turn drive generators to
produce electricity.

FOSSIL FUELS

 Coal, oil and gas are fossil


fuels, which have been
formed over the last 600
million years.
 Coal is the fossilized
remains of huge forests
which covered many parts
of the world in prehistoric
times and hence contains
biomass.

FOSSIL FUELS

 The formation of fossil


fuels is due to a series of
geologic processes where
the remains of organic life
are accumulated in the
ocean bottom and are
buried to eventually
become part of the
geosphere.

ELECTROCHEMICAL

 “battery”
 a device that stores chemical
energy and converts it to electrical
energy.
 The chemical reactions in a battery
involve the flow of electrons from
one material (electrode) to
another, through an external circuit.
The flow of electrons provides an
electric current that can be used to
do work.
