renewable resources
Across
- 3. Cell, an electrical chemical device that converts fuel, such as hydrogen, into an electrical current
- 5. Solar Energy, Energy captured from sunlight with intermediate technologies
- 8. Impoundment, Storage of water in a reservior behind a dam
- 11. The application of an electric current to water molecules to split them into hydrogen and oxygen
- 12. Energy, Energy generated from kinetic energy of moving air
- 14. Electricity generated by water
- 15. efficiency, Percentage of the total energy input that does useful work and is not converted into low-quality, usually useless heat in an energy conversion system or process.
- 17. Alcohol made by converting starches and sugars from plant material into alcohol and CO2
- 18. Grid, Efficient self regulating electricity distribution network that accepts any source of electricity and distributes it effectively to end users
- 19. Energy, Energy that comes from the movement of water driven by the pull of the moon
Down
- 1. accumulation of sediments on the bottom of a reservior
- 2. of the River, Hydroelectivity generation in which water is retained behind a low dam or no dam
- 4. predominant form of energy used by people in the less-developed countries (10% of world)
- 6. source Heat Pump, A technology that transfers heat from the ground to a building
- 7. not practical to transport long distance so it's mostly used locally
- 8. Turbine, Turbine powered by wind
- 9. A diesel substitute produced by extracting and chemically altering oil from plants
- 10. Energy, Heat energy that comes from the natural radioactive decay of elements deep within earth
- 13. Solar Cell, A system of capturing energy from sunlight and converting it directly into electricity
- 16. conservation, Reducing or eliminating the unnecessary waste of energy.
