That's right, it's from the Earth, through renewable and non-renewable energy sources

Do you know where energy comes from?

Cars get energy from fuel...

Some toys need energy to make them work...

Even sailing boats get energy from the wind!

Energy is everywhere

non-renewable energy sources

These energy sources are found in nature, in limited quantities. Once they're fully consumed, they can be substituted and take a long time to be generated again

Also extracted from underground. It’s black and shiny. It’s obtained from mines and energy is obtained through burning it

It’s extracted from the subsoil and is colorless and tasteless. However, it’s dangerous when inhaled, so a substance is added to it so it can be detected in the event of a leak

It’s extracted from the subsoil, it’s liquid and stores lots of energy. It’s obtained from deep wells and is stored in refineries

These energies are obtained from almost unlimited natural sources, either because they contain a lot of energy or because they can be regenerated via natural means

Hello! I’m Lux and I’m the solar energy avatar. This energy is obtained from the sun. The sun is an immense energy source, and we can use solar panels to take advantage of it. The use of these panels allows us to transform heat from the sun into electricity. Click on the panel to continue.

Hello! I’m Kelvin and I’m the geothermal energy avatar. This energy is generated using the interior heat of the Earth. The continuous energy flow produced by the temperature between the surface and the interior is taken advantage of. This energy can be taken advantage of to produce electricity or take advantage of that heat. Click on the volcano to continue!

Hello! I’m Zephyr and my specialism is wind energy. This energy is obtained from the movement of the wind. To turn it into electricity, wind turbines or windmills are used. Click on the windmill to continue!

Hello! We’re Cation and Anion, the green hydrogen avatars. It’s the most abundant natural element. We can obtain green hydrogen through a chemical process called electrolysis, with the help of other renewable energies. Click on the molecules to continue!
