1. RENEWABLE AND NOT RENEWABLE ENERGIES IES Pablo R. Picasso Chiclana de la Frontera

2. ENERGY Energy is defined as the capacity of performing changes It allows almost everything in the Universe to happen

3. NON - RENEWABLE ENERGY ● Oil ● Coal ● Natural Gas ● Nuclear Fission Energy By non-renewable energy we mean those kinds of limited sources of energy that can not be replaced when they are completely used up.

4. OIL Advantages: ● It is easy to manage and its use is well organized. Disadvantages: ● It contaminates when is produced, transported or used. ● It releases CO 2 ● It causes acid rain http://www.educapoles.org/swf/animations_loader.swf?path=/uploads/flashanims_files/ energy_10_oil_061211.swf

5. COAL Advantages: ● Deposits are usually on the surface which makes it easy to remove and transport Disadvantages: ● Its extraction generates a significant degradation of the landscape ● It produces too much CO 2 ● It causes acid rain http://www.educapoles.org/swf/animations_loader.swf?path=/uploads/flashanims_files/e nergy_9_coal_061211.swf

6. NATURAL GAS Advantages: ● It doesn’t produce acid rain Disadvantages: ● High installation cost ● High CO 2 emissions and fuel consumption http://www.educapoles.org/swf/animations_loader.swf?path=/uploads/flashanims_file s/energy_11_gas_061211.swf

7. NUCLEAR ENERGY Advantages: ● High energetic output. ● Low atmospheric contamination. Disadvantages: ● Radiactive residuals. ● Detailed protocol program is required. ● An accident may have terrible consequences. http://www.educapoles.org/swf/animations_loader.swf?path=/uploads/flashanims_files/en ergy_12_nuclear_energy_061211.swf

8. RENEWABLE ENERGIES ● Solar ● Wind ● Minihidraulic ● Tidal wave ● Geothermal ● Biomass They are energies which are constantly renewed. It doesn’t mind what they are used far, and they always keep the same level of energy.

9. SOLAR Advantages: ● It does not use petrol ● It does not produce much residuals ● CO 2 emission and enviromental impact are reduced ● The sun is free Disadvantages: ● The location must be in a place with high solar radiation ● Less developed than other systems ● It is dangerous because of the high temperatures it reaches http://www.educapoles.org/swf/animations_loader.swf?path=/uploads/flashanims_files/energ y_15_the_sun_061211.swf

10. WIND Advantages: ● It does not produce pollution ● It is a safe and renewable source of energy ● It doesn’t release CO 2 emissions and it doesn’t generate residues Disadvantages: ● It depends on atmospheric conditions ● The transformation towers modify the landscape and produce a high level of acoustic contamination ● A lot of birds die when they crashed into the windmill spades http://www.educapoles.org/swf/animations_loader.swf?path=/uploads/flashanims_files/ene rgy_16_the_wind_061211.swf

11. WAVE ENERGY Advantages: ● Low level of pollution ● It is avaliable in any climate and epoch of the year Disadvantages: ● Visual impact on the coastal landscape ● Punctual location ● High cost

12. MINIHYDRAULIC Advantages: ● It is a renewable and clean energy that even works at night ● Low cost. It doesn’t use fuel Disadvantages: ● Landscape must be modified ● Need of flooding a large extension of land that forces people to move from their home http://www.educapoles.org/swf/animations_loader.swf?path=/uploads/flashanims_files/ene rgy_13_water_061211.swf

13. GEOTHERMAL ENERGY Advantages: ● No acoustic contamination ● This energy doesn’t produce too much residuals ● This system allows us to save a lot of money Disadvantages: ● Water is contaminated with substances as ammonia and arsenic ● It produces thermal pollution ● This energy damages landscape http://www.educapoles.org/swf/animations_loader.swf?path=/uploads/flashanims_files/e nergy_17_geothermal_power_071128.swf

14. BIOMASS Advantages: ● You can use biomass fuel for a lot things ● The CO 2 released in biomass’combustion has been previously fixed in plant growth, with a very favorable balance Disadvantages: ● The plant construction causes alterations in the natural environment ● Getting a good energy supply needs a large amount of biomass http://www.educapoles.org/swf/animations_loader.swf?path=/uploads/flashanims_files/en ergy_14c_the_biomass_061211.swf
