Alternative energy - can be used instead of fossil fuels, usually renewable sources such as wind and power
Bio fuel – fuels from plants e.g. vegetable oil or poo! Coal – fossil fuel made from trees and plants
Energy efficiency – measures to reduce heat loss or the amount of energy needed to complete a task Fossil fuels – fuels produced by burning coal, oil and natural gas. They have taken millions of years to form and are thus not renewable e.g. oil, coal and natural gas Geothermal – energy from the heat under the ground in volcanic areas Hydro – electric power – energy produced by water Non-renewable – cannot be used again, only used once e.g. coal, oil, natural gas and nuclear Nuclear power – energy released from uranium and plutonium Proactive – thinking about how to solve problems before they happen rather than reacting to them after the event Reactive – reacting to something after it happens Renewable – can be used again e.g. wave, solar, water, wind, tidal, geothermal and bio fuels
1
Reserves – fuel supplies already discovered which could be used in the future Resources – any material or product that people find useful can be natural (climate, vegetation, minerals etc.) and human (labour, machinery, money etc.) Solar energy - -energy from the sun Sustainable – activities and economic growth with a good future because the environment upon which they depend is not being destroyed. It does not waste resources and looks after the needs of today without damaging resources for the future Thermal power station – electricity produced by heat from burning coal and oil to heat water which turns to steam to power a turbine which turns a generator to give electricity. The steam is then turned back to water in a cooling tower Transnational corporations – multinational companies or large businesses that have offices and factories all over the world with cheap labour and low productions costs in developing countries Urban development corporations (UDCs) – set up in 1981 to regenerate inner city area to improve conditions for people living there Wind farm – an area of modern windmills (turbines) used to produce energy

Total production of primary fuels, when expressed in terms of their energy content, fell by 10.7% in 2012 compared to 2011. There were sharp falls in both oil and gas production due to a number of maintenance issues and longer term decline. Primary oil (crude oil and NGLs) accounted for 40% of total production, natural gas 32%, primary electricity (consisting of nuclear, wind and natural flow hydro) 14%, coal 9%, while bioenergy and waste accounted for the remaining 6.4 million tonnes of oil equivalent.
Total production increased rapidly between 1980 and 2000, mainly due to the growth of oil and gas. Production in 2000 was at record levels for natural gas, whilst in 1999 it was at record levels for overall energy and petroleum. Production has since been on the decline as a number of oil and gas fields become exhausted and also due to increased maintenance activity. Production is now 59% lower than its peak in 1999.

In 2012 UK coal production fell to an all-time low of 17 million tonnes. Production was 8% lower in 2012 than in 2011; deep mined production fell by 16%, as a result of a number of operational and geological issues faced by several of the 10 deep-mined sites in operation at the end of 2012, whilst surface mine production (including a small amount of slurry) decreased by 4%. Imports started in 1970, and grew steadily to reach 20 million tonnes a year by the late 1990s; very rapid expansion of imports in 2001 meant that imports exceeded the level of UK production for the first time in that year. As annual levels of UK coal production continued to fall, imports continued to grow rapidly and in 2006 reached a new record of 51 million tonnes, representing 75 per cent of total UK coal supply. From this point on, imports fell, mainly as a result of less demand by electricity generators, rather than higher indigenous production. However, in 2012, due to a greater demand by electricity generators and with UK production at an all-time low, imports increased by 38 per cent (+12 million tonnes) from the levels reported in 2011 (33 million tonnes), but still 6 million tonnes lower than 2006.

Since the first ‘surplus’ on oil trade (£0.3 billion) which occurred in 1980, oil trade has contributed more than £45 billion to the UK balance of payments. The largest ‘surplus’ of £8 billion in 1985 reflected high crude oil production and prices. In 1990 the ‘surplus’ fell from this peak due to lower prices but managed to peak again in 2000 (£6.6 billion). Since 2000 the surplus has steadily declined and in 2005 the UK became a net importer of oil (-£2.2 billion) though still an exporter of oil products. In 2012, the deficit was £14.2 billion, an increase of £2.6 billion from the previous year, as imports increased to offset the falls in UK production.

From the early 1970s, following the expansion of UK production of natural gas, gas consumption grew rapidly reaching a record high in 2004 of 1,125 TWh. Since then, consumption has seen an overall decline, and in 2012 total gas consumption was 845.6 TWh, around 25% below its 2004 peak. These longer term trends are driven by commodity prices, energy efficiency and, for domestic use in particular, temperature.
Domestic demand in 2012 was high, up almost 16 per cent on 2011, reflecting colder temperatures, but gas demand for electricity generation fell by almost a third to 214 TWh largely as a result of coal replacing gas use due to high gas prices.

Compared to 2011, industrial coal prices decreased in 2012 by 4% in real terms, but were 54% higher than 10 years earlier in 2002. Electricity prices increased in 2012 by 3% in real terms, and were 94% higher than 10 years earlier in 2002. Gas prices increased by 8% in 2012, but were 122% higher than in 2002. Heavy fuel oil prices increased by 5% in the year to 2012, and were over two and a half times as high as in 2002. The rise in heavy fuel oil prices is due to the sustained high price of crude oil since 2010.

Changing energy patterns in the UKName ________________________________________________________________________________
• The UK has the largest and most varied energy resources of all the European Union countries.• Production of oil and gas from the North Sea began in the 1970s. Less than half of these resources have been
exploited.• Since the 1980s there has been growing awareness of the impact of burning fossil fuels on air quality and
global warming.• The coalminers’ strike in 1984 led the government to reduce its support for the coal industry and encouraged
companies to import cheaper foreign coal.• Nuclear accidents, such as Chernobyl in 1986, have led to concern over the safety of nuclear power.• Electricity and gas companies in the UK were privatised in the 1980s, taking them out of government control.
Unlike national industries, private companies have to make a profit.• Burning coal produces much more sulphur dioxide (SO2) than burning gas.• The EU requires electricity producers to reduce SO2 emissions from power stations by 60% from 1980 levels,
by the year 2003.• The Kyoto Summit of 160 governments in 1997 requires all EU countries to reduce CO2 emissions by 8%
from 1990 levels, by the year 2020.• The UK government expects electricity companies to take more of their power from renewable sources.• Gas has become a more profitable alternative to coal burning in power stations.

Electricity companies sell electricity by the unit. One unit is theamount that is consumed by a one-kilowatt (1,000 watts) appliancefor one hour. So, for one unit of electricity a 100-watt lamp willlight continuously for ten hours, or a 1,000-watt fire will heat forone hour.
Your taskFind out how much electricity your family consumes in a day. (It would beeasier to do this at the weekend when you are around yourself to check.)a) Keep a record of each appliance that is used during the day and for how
long it is used. Write this in the table.b)Find the electricity consumption for each appliance in the box below.
Work out the amount of electricity each appliance uses in a day.c) Work out the total amount of electricity consumed in a day. If you know
the price per unit, you could also work out the cost. (The price per unitwill be on your last electricity bill.)

When the Exxon Valdez oil tanker ran aground in 1989 it createdone of the world’s largest oil spills and a huge environmentaldisaster. About 40 million litres of oil were spilt affecting 2,400kilometres of coastline. Along the shore the layer of oil was up toten centimetres thick.
The short-term effect on wildlife was devastating – about 4,000otters, 200 harbour seals and 400,000 birds were killed. In 1990,45 million salmon returned to their ancestral rivers along the southcoast of Alaska, but two years later this had dropped to five million.It has been harder to assess the long-term impact of the disaster.

�1 Read about the advantages and
disadvantages of wind power below.
The wind has been used for thousands of years as
a power source for sailing ships and windmills.
Nowadays, huge wind turbines can generate
electricity from the power of the wind. A wind
farm is an area with lots of wind turbines in it.
�2 Categorise the statements by colouring them as follows:
� advantages of wind power in green
� disadvantages of wind power in red.
Fast-moving blades killmigrating birds.Often sited in areas of
outstanding natural
beauty or National Parks.
Can be ideal for isolatedislands where it is difficultto get electricity.
Are cheaper than nuclear
power and safer.
Can be removed withno permanent scarringof the landscape.
No carbon dioxide orgreenhouse gases aregiven off becausenothing gets burnt.
Does not contributeto global warming.
Does not cause airpollution or give offany gases that canlead to acid rain.
Can generateelectricity close topeople who need it.
To be exposed to thegreatest wind, wind farmshave to be located on highland, making them visiblefor a great distance.
Are the most energy-efficient of all theelectricity-generatingtechnologies.
7,000 turbines areneeded to producethe same amount ofelectricity as onenuclear power station.
Generating electricity usingwind power is still expensive.
Onshore wind power is very
ineffective in comparison
with offshore power.
Winds are strongestin winter whendemand forelectricity is highest.
Electricity generatedduring storms cannotbe stored for useduring calm weather.
Land underneathwind turbines canstill be farmed.
Wind could generate 10%of the UK’s electricity.
No fuel to transportor to store.
The UK has many suitablesites for wind farms, bothon land and offshore.
Wind is unreliable, soturbines cannot beturned on when demandfor power is highest.
A large wind farm isexpensive to build.
Visitors can be put offpopular tourist areas wherewind farms are located.
Coldest weather is oftenduring calm weather.
Wind does notblow all the time.
Wind power is gettingcheaper to develop.
Turbines are noisy andcan interrupt TV andradio transmission.
Running costsare very low.
Wind is free.
The UK is one of the windiestcountries in the world.
Can produce incomefor farmers whoseland they are on.

Your task1 Read the facts about the wind energy industry in Denmark. Choose five
facts that are important arguments in favour of wind power.
2 Find a map of Europe in your atlas that shows both Denmark and theUK.a) In your workbook, compare the location of the two countries.
Suggest ways in which the UK is an even better location for windpower than Denmark.
b) Imagine that you work for the wind energy industry in the UK.Write a letter in your workbook to the government outlining themain arguments in favour of developing more wind farms in the UK.
Denmark has 4,900 wind turbinessupplying 7% of the country’selectricity – a higher proportionthan any other country in theworld.
Denmark’s wind energy industryemploys more people than thecountry’s fishing fleet.
Denmark has the most ambitiouswind energy target in the world –to get 50% of its energy from thewind by 2030.
Wind power produces minimalamounts of carbon dioxide, themain greenhouse gas. Each 1.5megawatt wind turbine avoids5,000 tonnes of carbon dioxidebeing emitted by burning coaleach year.
Europe’s largest wind farm is atCarno in Wales. It produceselectricity for 25,000 homes. Thewind turbines were built inDenmark.
Wind turbines are Denmark’sfourth largest export commodity.
Wind energy in Denmarkproduces enough power for440,000 homes.
An estimated 40,000 jobs havebeen created by the wind energyindustry around the world –mostly by Danish companies.
In the 1930s, over 30,000windmills were used in Denmarkto power farm machinery andpump water. By 2030, 4,000modern wind turbines couldprovide half the country’s energy.
