2. Alternative Renewable Sustainable

4. A. An Electricity Primer 2 Types 1.Static A non-moving e- gradient is produced. A discharge relieves the gradient. 2.Current

5. 2. Current electricity = a constant flow of electrons. Two types of Current Electricity: a. Direct Current (DC) b. Alternating Current (AC)

6. a. Direct Current (DC) Battery= bucket full of chemicals that causes electrons to move. Cathode gains electrons Anode loses electrons Electrolyte = chemical that allows the electrons to move

7. b. Alternating Current Voltage – number of electrons (volts) Current = pressure of the electrons (amps) Current –

10. A. Wind

12. B. Solar 1. Direct Solar vs Uses solar energy for heating or electricity without a naturally occurring conversion. Ex: passive and active solar Indirect Solar Solar converted to another form of energy in nature. Ex: fossil fuels wind biomass hydroelectric

13. 2. Passive Solar Heat vs Construction designs for collecting heat. No fans or collection devises are used. http://www.susdesign.com/sunangle/ Active Solar Heat Fans, pumps, or collection devises are used.

14. 3. Solar Thermal Commercial Generators 10-15¢/kWh Oil filled parabolic collectors concentrate heat. An exchanger creates steam that in- turn moves a turbine. Adv/Dis

15. 4. Photovoltaic 15-25¢ / kWh Based on the diode properties of silicon. Million Solar Roof Initiative –DOE –Solar America Initiative
