Across
- 5. a device that's turned by water steam or wind in order to make renewable energy in the form of power such as electricity
- 7. electricity generated by the kinetic energy of moving water
- 9. the electrical chemical device that converts fuel into electricity
- 10. a use of energy from sunlight that converts it into electricity (not heat)
- 11. an example of thermal mass that is used to provide heating and cooling
- 13. an example of a nondepletable resource that powers wind turbines
- 16. an energy that can't be used up
- 17. an example of a potentially renewable energy source that powers hydroelectric dams, is also the only byproduct of hydrogen fuel cells
- 18. renewable energy is considered this because it will not runout withing human lifetimes
- 19. a hydroelectricity generation where wateris behind little or no dam where animals such as marine life and brids have a high risk of death
- 20. this is a concern and limitation when installing many renewable energy source turbines
- 21. the type of fuel commonly used in fuel cells to create electricity
- 22. renewable energy sources help stop this consequence of carbon or other gasses entering the atmosphere from happening
Down
- 1. an energy source that can be regenerated forever as long as it's not overharvested
- 2. using technology that captures and stores the energy of the sun with equipment and/or devices
- 3. sediments that accumulate on the bottom of a reservoir from moving water causing the reservoir to eventually be dismantled
- 4. taking advantage of solar radiation without active technology, this energy cant be stored
- 6. the storage of water in a reservoir behind a dam that can be used to make hydroelectricity
- 8. an example of a radioactive geyser at Yellowstone national park
- 12. heat energy that comes from natural radioactive decay of element deep within the earth
- 14. unlike most energy sources geothermal energy does not originate from this
- 15. energy that comes from the movement of water driven by the gravitational pull of the moon
- 17. energy generated from the kinetic energy of moving air
