The two types of energy resources I chose were wind energy and biofuel energy. Wind energy uses turbines which convert the kinetic energy in the wind into mechanical power. This power can be used for a generator‚ a generator can convert this mechanical power into electricity to power homes‚ businesses‚ schools‚ and many others. Biofuel energy unlike other renewable energy sources can be converted directly into liquid fuels for our transportation needs usually found from dead plants and animals
