Biomass is an organic way of getting energy through living organisms like plant and animals, most common are plants, wood, and waste called biomass feedstocks.

Biomass is turned by thermal conversion and used as energy, this process involves heating the biomass feedstock to burn, dehydrate, or stabilize it.

Nuclear energy is the energy held in the nucleus of an atom; it can be obtained through two types of reactions – fission and fusion.

-Nuclear fusion is a nuclear reaction in which two or more atomic nuclei collide at a very high speeds and join to form a new type of atomic nucleus.

-Nuclear fission produces energy through the splitting of atoms, which releases heat energy that can generate steam and then be used to turn a turbine to produce electricity.

A nuclear reactor produces and controls the release of energy from splitting the atoms of certain elements. In a nuclear power reactor, the energy released is used as heat to make steam to generate electricity.

Solar energy is created by nuclear fusion that takes place in the sun. This fusion occurs when protons from hydrogen atoms collide violently into the nucleus of the sun and fuse to create a helium atom. This process, known as the PP (proton-proton) chain reaction, emits an enormous amount of energy. At its core, the sun fuses millions of metric tons of hydrogen per second.

# data[].attributes.body
The way the energy is generated is by steams, the steams come from reservoirs of hot water, below the earth surface, then the steam rotates in a turbine to active a generator and finally produces electricity. Some equipment used to obtain the energy besides the steams and the water is that there are necessary resources from medium or high temperatures that are located in tectional regions. Places such as Iceland and New Zealand cover a significant share of this type of energy (most Iceland).

Location:  Geothermal plants need to be built in places where the energy is accessible, some areas are not able to exploit this resource.

Gas release: There are many of these gases trapped under the surface of the Earth, which during digging are released into the atmosphere.

It triggers earthquakes due to the alterations of the earth that are caused by the digging.

High cost: geothermal energy is a very expensive resource, price tags range from around $2-$7 million for a plant with a capacity of 1 megawatt.

birds.

4 Eolic turbines make a lot of noise, this may be a problem for wildlife because they may

alterate.

1-The initial cost of buying a solar system is quite high.
2-The efficiency levels of solar panels are relatively low compared to the efficiency levels of other renewable energy systems.
3-Solar energy panels require additional equipment to convert direct electricity into alternating electricity in order to be used on the electrical grid.

Wind turbines may reduce the amount of electricity generation from fossil fuels, this results in lower total air pollution and carbon dioxide emissions.

Wind turbines do not release emissions that can pollute the air or water (with rare exceptions),and they do not require water for cooling.

Wind turbines can be built on existing farms or ranches.

Flowing water creates energy turned into electricity. The most common for hydroelectric is to store water in a reservoir. Water from the reservoir is released through a turbine, spinning it, which activates a generator to produce electricity.

Hydroelectric dams use alternators to convert energy from spinning turbine into electricity.
