They are sustainable and won't run out (infinite) Categorise the following types of energy into Non-renewable or Renewable energy sources. Non-Renewable / finite (5) Coal Oil Nuclear Natural Gas Renewable / infinite (7) HEP - Hydro Electric Power Geothermal Energy Solar Power Wave tidal power Biofuels Wind Fuelwood (Study fig 6.1)) What was the main source of energy used in Japan in 2013? (1) State two pieces of evidence from Fig. 6.1 that Japan plans to reduce the use of fossil fuels by 2030. (2) Give 3 reasons and explain how it will benefit Japan to reduce the use of importedfossil fuels and use more renewable energy. (3) Which of the following energy sources is the odd one out? Coal Natural Gas Nuclear Oil Why is that energy source you have chosen, the odd one out? Study Fig. 6.1 (above), which shows information about sources of electricity in Mexico (anLEDC).Question: State the number of nuclear power stations in Mexico. (1 mark) Using Fig. 6.1 only, name one renewable and one non-renewable source of electricityin Mexico. (2 marks) Solar power (renewable and Oil (Non-Renewable) Wind (Renewable) and Oil (non-renewable) Wind (Renewable) Geothermal power (Non-renewable) Study figure 6.1 (Mexico)Describe the distribution of Hydroelectric power plants in Mexico. (3 marks) Give 3 reasons as to why some countries use/ consume more energy than other countries. name and briefly explain 3 reasons - try and name countries Non Renewable and renewable energy supplies - click on the correct card for key term and desfinition
