How to win turbines produce electricity
This involves lots of wind turbines open exposed to places like on the moors okay and each turbine has a generator inside when the blades rotate the generator produces electricity
What are the advantages of wind turbines
They cause no permanent damage to landscape they have minimal running costs and new fuel costs they are renewable and they cause no pollution
What are the disadvantages of wind turbines
They spoil the view there is a lots of wind turbines needed to replace one coal fired power station and they cover a lot of ground they are very noisy and when the wind stops does no electricity produced and you cannot increase supply when there is an extra demand and the initial costs are quite high
How do you solar cells generate electricity
So the cells generate electricity currents directly from sunlight
What are the advantages of solar cells
They have no running costs and produce free energy once that’s up there very reliable source in hot countries and also work in cloudy countries there is no pollution and it is renewable
What are the disadvantages of solar cells
Do you have high initial cost you cannot increase the power output when there’s extra demand only works in daytime
How does geothermal power produce electricity
In volcanic areas over hot rocks live near to the surface the slow decay of various radioactive elements including uranium produces electricity that can be directly used to keep buildings
What are the advantages of geothermal energy
It is the energy that is reliable and there’s very little damage to the environment geothermal power can be used to generate electricity and heat buildings directly
What are the disadvantages of geothermal energy
There are not many suitable location for the power plants and the cost of building a power plant is high compared to the amount of energy
What are biofuels
Find choose a renewable resource is that come from plants or animal waste
How does hydroelectric power produce electricity
It requires the flooding of the Valley by building a big dumb what is allowed through the damn to turbines in the dam
What are you advantages of hydroelectric power
Tell me a more running costs and nephew course it can be a useful way to generate electricity on a small scale in remote areas and have no impact on humans when they are in remote areas it can provide an immediate response to an increased demand for electricity
There is no pollution
What are the disadvantages of hydroelectric power
The initial costs are high
The flooding of the valley can cause rotten vegetation which releases insane and carbon dioxide there is a loss of habitat for some species
How does wave power produce electricity
What is a small wave power turbines are located around the coast like wind power the moving turbines are connected to a generator when the wave turns the generation

How does wave power produce electricity
What is a small wave power turbines are located around the coast like wind power the moving turbines are connected to a generator when the wave turns the generation
What are the advantages of wave power
Fuel costs and has minimal running costs with power can be very useful for small islands. There is no pollution
Are the disadvantages of wave power
They are unreliable since waves tend to die out when the wind drops the initial costs are high and it disturbs the distribution of sea birds and the habitats exposed to view and can be hazardous to vote
How does tidal power produce electricity
The most common method is my building a tidal barrage which are big dams built across rivers estuaries with turbines in them as the tide comes in and she was at the estuary the water is an allowed to the tire bike I control speed which turns turbines and produces electricity
What are the advantages of tidal barrages
They have no fuel costs and minimal rallycross they can produce a significant amount of energy they do not produce pollution
Siri are reliable as the tide comes in twice a day without fail

What are the disadvantages of tidal barrages
Play prevent free access for Boots the spoiled view they alter the habitat of wildlife such a sea creatures the height of the tide is variables to lower tides will provide significantly less energy than bigger tides and they don’t work when water level is the same on either side of the barrage and this happens four times a day
