Fossil fuel energy

Fossil fuel energy is that fossil energy is obtained through the combustion of plant remains and other living organisms that have been decomposing over the years and accumulating in the earth's subsoil. Its advantages are: Its energy is cheap, it is abundant, and it has high energy power. And its drawbacks are: It is dangerous to health due to the gases it gives off, high pollution and causes damage to nature. The reserves of these fuels are distributed very unevenly on the planet and few countries concentrate most of them, sometimes in deposits located in remote areas and difficult to access, making their extraction and use difficult. Based on the distribution of this type of energy in the world, I could say that it is not as exploited as it could be. For that reason, not.

Nuclear energy

Nuclear energy is that it is released as a result of the reaction that occurs when heavy atomic nuclei are divided. Its advantages are: It is a very powerful energy. It is a very stable energy. They do not release greenhouse gases. And its disadvantages are: Produces waste from the material used. Its high radioactivity. This energy is distributed by the United States, France, Japan and Russia. I believe that this energy is highly exploited because we use it a lot, for example, for medical products, food, tissue banks, dental and pharmaceutical products, cosmetics, beekeeping material and paper.

Wind power

Wind energy consists of converting the energy produced by the movement of the blades of a wind turbine into electrical energy. Its advantages are: It is inexhaustible. No contaminant. Reduce the use of fossil fuels. And its drawbacks are: Lack of security in the existence of wind. The speed cannot exceed a limit. It is necessary to build high voltage lines. The wind is found throughout the world, so wind energy favors the energy independence of countries. I think that it is very exploited because it is used a lot to provide electricity.

Solar energy

Solar energy consists of installing solar panels or collectors, it can be used to obtain thermal energy or to generate electricity. Its advantages are: It does not emit toxic substances or air pollutants. Reduce the use of fossil fuels. Reduces dependence on consumption of the electricity grid and natural gas. And its drawbacks are: The creation of solar panels or modules is not a zero emission process. weather dependency. It is not constant, since it varies throughout the day and is not available at night. The distribution of this type of energy in the world is transmitted to the earth through space in the form of energy particles and radiation. I believe that it is not an exploited energy, although now this type of energy is being used more.

Seawater energy

The energy of seawater is that which is achieved with the movement of the tides. Its advantages are: It is a renewable and clean energy. It is highly predictable. It is effective at low speeds. And its drawbacks are: The cost of new technologies. The construction of dikes is necessary to make a dam. Not all regions can produce it. Its distribution in the countries is that the countries that currently have installed capacity to produce tidal energy are: South Korea, followed by France, Canada, the United Kingdom and Norway. I think so, it is a very used energy because biomass can be transformed into electricity or heat. We achieve this process both on a small scale, either with boilers in homes or buildings, or in industrial plants, thanks to biological and thermochemical procedures.

Hydraulic energy

Hydraulic energy is a type of energy that takes advantage of the movement of water. It allows to obtain electricity thanks to the use of the kinetic and potential energy of currents or waterfalls. Its advantages are: Reduces energy dependence. Contributes to sustainable development. It's economic. Its drawbacks are: It depends on the rains and the droughts. Limited places for installation. The initial investment is expensive. The distribution is the amount of electricity that can be generated depends on the distance of the water fall and the amount of water that circulates through the system. Electricity can be transported over long-distance power lines to homes, factories, and businesses. I believe that it is not used because that energy is not used much in the countries.

Geothermal energy

Geothermal energy takes advantage of the heat inside the earth so that it can be used to power air conditioning systems in a sustainable way or also to generate renewable electricity. Its advantages are: A silent energy. Allows double recycling. It requires little maintenance. And its drawbacks are: Although in small amounts in relation to the energy supply it provides, it produces emissions of hydrogen sulphide and CO2. It can contaminate nearby waters with substances such as arsenic or ammonia. Its installation produces a great visual impact on the landscape. Distribution of this type of energy in the world The first attempts to produce electricity with geothermal energy begin with Prince Gionori Conti's experiments in Italy between 1904 and 1905. I believe that this energy is widely used because air conditioning systems are used a lot and in a sustainable way or also to generate renewable electricity.

biomass energy

Biomass energy is the energy obtained from the combustion of organic matter. Its advantages are: Economic price. Less dependence on fossil fuels. Renewable and abundant energy source. And its drawbacks are: Its reach is still limited. Its performance is inferior to that of other types of energy sources such as fossil fuels. Large available land is required for its production and for its subsequent storage. Among the countries that make the greatest use of biomass are countries such as the United Kingdom and the Nordic countries of Europe, such as Poland and Finland. I think so, it is a very used energy because biomass can be transformed into electricity or heat. We achieve this process both on a small scale, either with boilers in homes or buildings, or in industrial plants, thanks to biological and thermochemical procedures.
