What is potential
the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position relative to others, stresses within itself, electric charge, and other factors.
|
What is a turbine
a machine for producing continuous power in which a wheel or rotor, typically fitted with vanes, is made to revolve by a fast-moving flow of water, steam, gas, air, or other fluid.
|
What is solar energy
radiant energy emitted by the sun.
|
What is renewable

|
What is norenewable
a nonrenewable energy source.
|
What is kinetic
energy that a body possesses by virtue of being in motion.
|
What is water energy
Flowing water creates energy that can be captured and turned into electricity. This is called hydroelectric power or hydropower. The most common type of hydroelectric power plant uses a dam on a river to store water in a reservoir.

What is solar energy used for
Solar power is arguably the cleanest, most reliable form of renewable energy available, and it can be used in several forms to help power your home or business. Solar-powered photovoltaic (PV) panels convert the sun's rays into electricity by exciting electrons in silicon cells using the photons of light from the sun.
