What is a combustion chamber?
100
This uses the sun's energy to heat something directly.
What is passive solar heating?
100
Nuclear energy gets its energy from this.
What is Nuclear Power Plants?
100
This is large arrays of wind turbines.
What is Wind Farms?
100
When bacteria decomposes organic wastes, one by product is this gas.
What is Methane?
200
When the steam turbine is directed against the blade of the turbine this happens.
What is Motion?
200
This solar heating is energy from the sun that is gathered by collectors and used to heat water to heat a building.
What is Active Solar Heating?
200
At the end of the cycle of a nuclear power plant this is released into the air.
What is heat in the form of steam?
200
The cost of wind power has been steadily falling as wind turbines become more than this.
What is efficient?
