What is energy?

Energy lights our cities, powers our vehicles, and runs machinery in factories. It warms and cools our homes, cooks our food, plays our music, and gives us pictures on television.

Energy is defined a the ability or capacity to do work.

Renewable EnergyNon-Renewable Energy

Renewable energy can be generated continuously, practically without the decay of source.

Non Renewable energy is energy that comes from the ground and is not replaced in a relatively

short time .

Solar energy, Wind energy, Geothermal energy, Hydro energy.

Energy from combustion of fossil fuels, coal, gas etc.

Types of Energy

Why to conserve it?

We have limited resources available on Earth.

Our demands are continuously increasing day by day.

It is possible that someday most of the non-renewable resources will be exhausted and we have to switch over to alternate energy.

We save our money when we save energy

We reduce pollution when we save energy

We save our energy when we save energy.

What can we do?

Recycle Recycle aluminum cans aluminum cans – 1 can saves – 1 can saves enough energy enough energy to run a to run a computer for 3 computer for 3 hours. hours.

Reduce Reduce paper and ink paper and ink -- print -- print double side double side and black and black and white.and white.

New Technology

Fluorescent light bulbs: Saves energy and money on utility bills, reduces air pollution.

Laptops: Consumes 90% less energy than desktop computers.

Energy star fans: Pulls warm air up in the summer which helps to circulate cool air and pushes warm air down in the winter to distribute more evenly.

Dual flush toilets: Consumes almost 50% of water than the old models.

How will it help?

Lets take an example:

Let us assume that a 100 watt bulb is used for a 8 hour day,

If we replace a 100 watt bulb with a 22 watt compact fluorescent lamp:

Power saved : 100 watt – 22 100 watt – 22 watt = 78 wattwatt = 78 watt

Therefore the utility bill will be less as less energy is consumed
