Energy Sources by Sophia

Energy Forces
In case you haven't noticed, energy sources come in all sorts of types and take many forms. Some of these forms include nuclear energy and fossil energy. By fossil energy, I mean oil, coal, and natural gas. Then comes the renewable sources. Renewable sources being wind, solar, and hydropower. These primary sources are then converted to electricity, a secondary energy source, and then flows through power lines and other infrastructures.

About nonrenewable sources, about 91% of the energy consumed in the United States comes from nonrenewable energy sources. Only 9% of the energy used in the United States come from renewable energy. Electricity itself is neither renewable nor nonrenewable. Hydrogen, like electricity, is a secondary energy source. Hydrogen stores and carries energy produced from different energy sources.
