  • 3.1 - Energy Demands
    • Biofuels
      • Renewable Energy Sources
        • e.g. methane and ethanol are used to generate electricity
    • Nuclear Power
      • nuclear fuel takes energy from atoms
        • uranium or plutonium
    • your energy demands are met mostly by burning fossil fuels - oil, coal and gas
    • Nuclear power, biofuels and renewable resources provide energy to generate some of the energy you use
    • uranium or plutonium is used as the fuel in a nuclear power station
      • much more energy is produced per kg of nuclear fuel than from fossil fuels
    • biofuels are renewable sources of energy
      • e.g. methane and ethanol are used to generate electricity
