Across
- 3. We put the on the roof to get energy from the sun
- 6. The most abundant greenhouse gas
- 8. That can be harnessed by large blades on wind turbines, which use it to generate electricity for residential and commercial purposes.
- 9. Fuel made from from plants or animal waste
- 10. Organic matter, such as wood, crops, seaweed and animal waste. It gets its energy from the sun and can be used to produce electricity.
- 11. Also known as petroleum – can be extracted and refined in order to make products such as gasoline, diesel and jet fuel.
- 13. Energy that comes from the heat generated by the Earth, such as volcanoes or geysers. It can be used to produce electricity, and provide heat and hot water.
- 17. Energy that comes from the force of moving water. Hydropower plants use dams to capture water energy and convert it to electricity.
- 18. Energy is released when atoms' nuclei are fused together (fusion) or split apart (fission). Nuclear power plants produce electricity through nuclear fission.
- 19. Human energy units
- 20. Unit of electrical power.
Down
- 1. The main light source on Earth, a renewable energy source.
- 2. Energy sources that will run out because the supply cannot replenished as fast as it is used, e.g. oil.
- 4. energy sourced that will never run out (e.g solar power)
- 5. What type of electricity bulb is mos efficient and has the longest life
- 7. A flammable black hard rock, comes from the remains of plants that died hundreds of millions of years ago. It has the highest level of carbon of all fossil fuels.
- 12. That was formed from the remains of tiny sea plants and animals that died millions of years ago. It is mainly composed of methane.
- 14. The rate system, which determines the charge for electricity consumption.
- 15. Electricity work powered in a given unit of time.
- 16. A device that generates electricity through a chemical reaction, used in electrical devices such as wall clocks, electronic thermometers, and more.
