1. Coal Power
2. Coal is burned for heating things up or for electricity
CPE -> EE
CPE -> HE
3. Coal contains the energy stored by plants that lived hundreds of millions of years ago in swampy forests. Layers of dirt and rock covered the plants over millions of years. The resulting pressure and heat turned the plants into the substance we call coal.
4. Coal takes millions of years to form, and therefore it is a non-renewable source of energy.

1. Hydroelectric power
2. Dam, Intake structure, Penstock, Turbine, and Generator

3. The water has more gravitational potential energy, (GPE), at a higher height, so when it comes down the intake structure, more GPE is converted into more kinetic energy and then the generator converts that kinetic energy into electrical energy.
4. There must be a river with a sufficient amount of water , and it must be located on high ground so that it generates enough energy for it to be worth the cost. It is also better, but not necessary, if the speed of the water is greater.

5. Hydroelectricity is renewable and sustainable. It is also environmentally friendly as it does not really produce greenhouse gasses. Hydroelectric dams store water, so if there is a lack of water, they can also provide water.
6. It is a renewable source of energy as the water used in the dam replaces itself, and the water quantity does not decrease. Hydroelectric dams do not waste invaluable or hard-to-obtain-in-a-short-amount-of-time resources like fossil fuels. It can also be carried out continuously, as long as there is water, and there will always be water as the water cycle is forever-repeating so it is renewable.

7. It may cause the loss of the natural areas around the rivers as the nature will be replaced by the hydroelectric power plant.
It may also result in the death of fish that cannot cope with the sudden change of having a hydroelectric power dam, or fish that get sucked into the Intake structure may be killed.

The energy can be transferred between different stores, such as chemical, kinetic, thermal, and electrical energy, depending on the specific application.

4. Large expanses of land, water and fertiliser.

5. Biofuels offer advantages over fossil fuels in terms of storage, transportation, and ease of use, as they are renewable, emit fewer greenhouse gases, can be blended with fossil fuels and used in existing infrastructure, can reduce dependence on foreign oil, provide economic opportunities, improve air quality, and are versatile in their applications.

6. Biofuels is a renewable source of energy because they are derived from biomass, which is organic material from plants, animals, or microorganisms that can be replenished through natural processes. Sustainable management practices like crop rotation, reforestation, and waste-to-energy conversion ensure that the biomass is constantly replenished. In contrast, fossil fuels are finite resources that take millions of years to form and are being depleted faster than they are being replenished.

7. Biofuels have potential benefits in reducing greenhouse gas emissions, but their production can cause environmental impacts such as deforestation, water scarcity, soil degradation, use of fertilizers and pesticides, food security concerns, and indirect land use change. Sustainable management practices and careful consideration of these impacts are necessary for biofuels to contribute to a more sustainable energy system.
