1
Oil energy
/ɔɪl ˈɛnərdʒi/
The burning of petroleum products like crude oil and diesel in power plants to create electricity for homes and businesses.
2
Coal energy
/koʊl ˈɛnərdʒi/
Energy produced by burning black or brown rocks called coal in power plants to create electricity.
3
Gas energy
/ɡæs ˈɛnərdʒi/
Energy produced by burning natural gas in power plants to create electricity for homes and businesses.
4
Nuclear energy
/nuːˈklɪər ˈɛnərdʒi/
Energy produced by splitting atoms in a power plant to create heat that generates electricity.
5
Hydropower energy
/haɪdɹoʊˈpaʊər ˈɛnərdʒi/
Electricity that is made by using the power of moving water, usually from rivers or waterfalls.
6
Geothermal energy
/ˌdʒiːoʊˈθɜːrməl ˈɛnərdʒi/
Heat energy from inside the Earth that is used to produce electricity by using hot water or steam from underground.
7
Wind energy
/waɪnd ˈɛnərdʒi/
Power produced by using large blades that spin in the wind to create electricity.
8
Solar energy
/ˈsoʊlɑr ˈɛnərdʒi/
Power produced from the sun's light and heat that can be converted into electricity using special panels or equipment.
9
Biofuels energy
/ˌbaɪoʊˈfjuːəlz ˈɛnərdʒi/
Energy produced by burning natural materials like plants, wood, or waste products instead of fossil fuels to generate electricity.
10
Hydrogen energy
/haɪˈdrɒdʒən ˈɛnərdʒi/
A clean way of making electricity by using hydrogen gas in special machines called fuel cells, which combine hydrogen with oxygen to produce power without harmful pollution.
11
Wave energy
/ˈweɪv ˈɛnərdʒi/
Energy produced by capturing the up-and-down movement of ocean waves and converting it into electricity.
12
Tidal energy
/ˈtaɪdəl ˈɛnərdʒi/
Energy produced by the movement of ocean waters as they rise and fall due to the pull of the moon and sun.
