ppefmhEdGarstin2/7There are many different types of renewable energy resources.
  • They will never run out.
  • They do not release carbon dioxide.
  • They release greenhouse gases.
  • They are a finite resource.
  • Their power generation is intermittent and storage is expensive.
  • It is constant and storage is cheap.
  • Solar and Wind turbines are expensive to install.
  • The wind rarely blows and sun rarely shines in the UK.
Generating electricity by burning gas has several advantages compared to burning coal. Select the correct missing words to complete the sentences below.
  • Hydroelectricity is generally very reliable for generating electricity.
  • Hydroelectricity is not very reliable for generating electricity.
  • Hydroelectricity is expensive because you have to build dams.
  • Hydroelectricity Destroys natural habitats when dams are built and large areas flooded.
  • Hydroelectricity Destroys natural habitats when dams are built and large areas flooded.
  • Hydroelectricity is generally very reliable for generating electricity.
  • Hydroelectricity is very cheap once the dams are built.
  • Hydroelectricity does not emit greenhouse gasses such as co2.
  • We do not have the natural waterbodies and landscape for hydroelectric dams.
  • It does not rain enough in the UK.
  • There are no rivers in the UK.
  • We do not have the natural waterbodies and landscape for nuclear power.
  • They are very reliable because the ground is always warm and the tides and waves are predictable.
  • They are very reliable because the ground is always cold and the tides are unpredictable.
  • They are very unreliable because the ground is always warm and the tides are predictable.
  • They are very unreliable because the ground is always cold and the tides are unpredictable.
