Energy Resources and their Uses in Producing Electricity Renewable energy is energy drawn from natural processes that are restored quicker than they are used up‚ some renewable energy resources are biomass‚ food‚ wind‚ waves‚ flowing water‚ solar and geothermal. The sun however‚ is known to be the ultimate energy resource since almost all energy resources originate from the sun’s energy. This is possible according to the law of conservation of energy which states that energy can’t be destroyed

Physics Energy Exploration Project Energy can be stored in many forms as potential energy. It can be extracted through chemical and mechanical processes to get usable energy. We use that kinetic energy and electricity every day to power our lights‚ run our cars and do most of our tasks. Fossil Fuel is a non-renewable energy source. It results from the decomposition of dead and buried organisms. They are millions of years old and are fossilized under rock and sand. They are efficient energy producers
