Hydro Power
Renewable Energy Sources
will run out
burn fossil fuels
naturally replenish themselves
are not sustainable
One advantage of wind energy is
may harm birds
installation of turbines is expensive
wind is inconsistent
does not produce pollution
This type of renewable energy is produced when organic matter is burned to heat water into steam which then turns a turbine, which in turn powers an electrical generator.
Biomass
Wind
Solar
Hydroelectric
What is one disadvantage of using solar energy?

Noise pollution
Cloudy days equal less electricity
Complex technology
This type of renewable energy makes use of the naturally occurring heat that originates from deep within the earth.

One advantage of solar and wind power over fossil fuels is that
wind and solar are presently much less expensive than fossil fuels.
wind and solar come from natural processes and fossil fuels do not.
wind and solar are nonrenewable resources and fossil fuel are renewable.
wind and solar are continuously renewable and fossil fuels take millions of years to be formed.
This is a liquid fuel derived from plant materials.
