Types of Energy
• Energy can be broadly divided into two categories-
• Renewable Energy
• Non Renewable Energy

Renewable Energy
• Renewable energy can be generated continuously practically without decay of
source. E.g.-
• Solar Energy
• Wind Energy
• Geothermal Energy
• Hydro Energy

3 10/30/2022
Solar Energy
• Solar energy can be converted into electrical energy by using solar panels, or
alternatively, be used as thermal energy using solar water heaters, solar
cookers etc.

4 10/30/2022
Wind Energy
• India is world’s third largest producer of electricity generation using wind
power by wind mills.

5 10/30/2022
Geothermal Energy
• A lot of energy exists inside earth crust. Natural hot water springs are a good
source of getting such energy.

6 10/30/2022
Hydro Energy
Using dams, water is allowed to pass through turbine blades, which produces electricity. In India,
after coal, most of the energy is produced by this method.

7 10/30/2022
Non Renewable Energy
• Non renewable energy cannot be generated again and again, e.g. energy
generated from combustion of fossil fuels, energy from coal and gas etc.

8 10/30/2022
Energy
• Energy can neither be generated nor it can be destroyed. It can only be
converted from one form to another.
• For example, in a room heater, electrical energy is converted to the thermal
energy.
• Turbine converts mechanical energy stored in steam to electrical energy.

Why to Conserve?
• We have limited fuels available on earth.
• Our demand for energy is increasing day-by-day.
• It is possible that someday, most of fuels will be exhausted, and we will have
to switch over to alternate energy.

Energy Conservation
What Can We Do?
We can do our bit to save energy. We should not waste energy in home.

• In School –
Always switch off lights and fans while going out of the class.

11 10/30/2022
• In computer lab, we should switch off computers before going out of class.

• At Home –
• We should not keep light and fan unnecessarily switched on.
• We should not open fridge door frequently.
• Watching interesting programs on TV is interesting, but afterwards,
TV should be switched off.

Power Saving, How will it help?
• Take an example:
• We replace one 100W bulb with a 13W CFL.
• Let us assume electricity is available for Rs. 3.00 per unit, and this bulb is used
for 6 Hours a day.
• The annual saving would be….
• Power saved: 100W-13W = 87W
=87W X 6 Hours X 365 Days
=17520 WH
=17.520 kWH or Units
=Rs. 52.56
Say Rupees 50 per one bulb replaced.

13 10/30/2022
What Else can be Done?
• We should discuss energy conservation with our friends and tell others how
can we reduce energy consumption.
