Renewable resource are a very important pert of saving energy and the environment. Renewable energy comes
from sources that are freely available (such as sunshine) of that are replenished naturally (like revers) or cab be
replenished (like biomass crops) about as fast as we use them. The main types of renewable energy are biomass,
geothermal, hydro-electricity, solar and wind.
Wind energy: Wind is energy on the move. Today we use modern windmills to capture this free, clean,
renewable energy.
Solar energy: We can capture solar energy in two main ways. An example of passive solar energy is opening
curtains in winter to let the sun shine in and help heat the air. An example of active solar energy is using solar
panes to make electricity, as with a solar-powered calculator.
Hydro-electricity: “Hydro” means water generated electricity: it accounts for more than sixty percent of
electricity used in Canada.
Biomass energy: Biomass energy comes from plants and other organic materials, such as wood, wood by-
products, grasses and corn, oilseed crops, agricultural and crop wastes.
Geothermal energy: Geothermal energy comes straight from the Earth- a volcano is an extreme example of
geothermal energy being released.

Most of the world’s energy comes from the sun. The sun’s energy is in wood, oil, and other things that people
use for energy.
People use many sources of energy. Ancient people used only their arms, hands and simple tools until they
discovered fire. Later, people learned to use the energy of the wind to sail ships. Then they learned to use
animals to do work. In the 18th and 19th centuries, people began to use machines. The first machines used steam.
They burned coal to heat water. The hot water turned into steam, and the steam engine did the work. Later,
people began to use the gasoline engine, and today people are using nuclear energy.
Energy is one of the basic concepts, or ideas, or physics. It is the ability to do work. Without energy we could
not live. We need energy to work, and scientists are always looking for new sources of energy.

1. None of the world’s energy comes from the sun.  
2. Wind, steam, and gasoline are sources of energy.  
3. People have never used nuclear energy.  
