Fossil Fuels: Coal: Mined from the ground, burned in power plants to heat water, produce steam, and drive turbines that generate electricity. Oil (Petroleum): Extracted from underground reservoirs or offshore platforms, refined into fuels (gasoline, diesel) and used in transport, heating, and power generation. Natural Gas: Extracted through drilling, often via fracking, burned to produce electricity, heat, and sometimes used as fuel for vehicles.
Renewable Energies:
Solar Energy: Photovoltaic panels convert sunlight into electricity directly; concentrated solar power (CSP) uses mirrors to concentrate sunlight to produce heat and steam for turbines. Wind Energy: Wind turbines convert kinetic energy of wind into mechanical rotation that drives generators to make electricity (onshore and offshore wind farms). Hydropower: Dams, run-of-river systems, or tidal installations use the potential/kinetic energy of moving water to spin turbines and generate electricity. Biomass: Organic materials (wood, agricultural residues, municipal waste) are combusted or converted into biofuels (ethanol, biodiesel, biogas) for heat, electricity, or transport. Geothermal Energy: Heat from the Earth’s interior (hot water, steam, or hot rocks) is brought to the surface through wells to drive turbines or provide direct heating. Tidal & Wave Energy: Devices exploit tidal currents, tidal range (barrages), or surface wave motion to drive mechanical systems and produce electricity.
Nuclear Energy
Uranium (fission): Inside a nuclear reactor, uranium atoms undergo fission (split), releasing heat that generates steam to drive turbines. Deuterium (fusion fuel): Deuterium is a stable isotope of hydrogen found in seawater. It is a candidate fuel for nuclear fusion (most practical fusion designs propose a deuterium–tritium reaction).
Hydrogen (as energy carrier): Produced by electrolysis of water (using electricity) or from natural gas with carbon capture. Can be used as a fuel for transport and industry. Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC): Uses temperature differences between warm surface water and cold deep water to run a heat engine and produce electricity.
