Bryan F. Mose Energy is the ability to do work What is Energy? Heat
Light Sound Kinetic (movement) Chemical Electrical Gravitational
Elastic (potential)
5. Nat. Sci. 4- Environmental Science/ECOLOGY Prepared by:
Bryan F. Mose All forms of energy are stored in different ways, in
the energy sources we use every day. These sources are divided into
2 groups.
7. Nat. Sci. 4- Environmental Science/ECOLOGY Prepared by:
Bryan F. Mose Renewable An energy source that can be replenished in
a short period of time. NonRenewable Non-renewable resources are
resources for which there is a limited supply.

10. Nat. Sci. 4- Environmental Science/ECOLOGY Prepared by:
Bryan F. Mose Fossil fuel Primary non-renewable fossil sources burn
coal or hydrocarbon fuels, which are the remains of the
decomposition of plants and animals. 3main types of fossil fuels:
coal petroleum natural gas
13. Nat. Sci. 4- Environmental Science/ECOLOGY Prepared by:
Bryan F. Mose Effect of fossil fuel The combustion of fossil fuels
leads to the release of pollution into the atmosphere. They are
causes of the global warming. Greenhouse gas emissions result from
fossil fuel-based electricity generation.
14. Nat. Sci. 4- Environmental Science/ECOLOGY Prepared by:
Bryan F. Mose Nuclear Fuels The other form of non- renewable
resource used to produce energy, nuclear fuels, is primarily
obtained through the mining and refining of uranium ore. Uranium is
a naturally occurring element found within the Earth's core.
15. Nat. Sci. 4- Environmental Science/ECOLOGY Prepared by:
Bryan F. Mose The Philippines has large reserves of many natural
resources. these are oil, natural gas and coal. Other sources of
energy that can be harnessed include geothermal energy and
hydroelectricity.
16. Nat. Sci. 4- Environmental Science/ECOLOGY Prepared by:
Bryan F. Mose Oil barrels The Philippines' proven oil deposits
currently stand at 138 million barrels. Natural gas flame Natural
gas deposits in the Philippines are located offshore, above the
country's deep- sea oil reserves. The Philippines possesses 3.9
trillion cubic feet of natural gas reserves.
17. Nat. Sci. 4- Environmental Science/ECOLOGY Prepared by:
Bryan F. Mose Coal mining The Philippines holds 260 million short
tons of usable coal reserves. While it has recently increased
extraction, consumption still far outpaces production, forcing the
country to rely on imports to meet demand.
18. Nat. Sci. 4- Environmental Science/ECOLOGY Prepared by:
Bryan F. Mose Other sources of energy Geothermal Energy Currently,
the Philippines is the second highest producer of geothermal
energy. The government has set a goal to surpass the United States
as the highest producer in the world.
19. Nat. Sci. 4- Environmental Science/ECOLOGY Prepared by:
Bryan F. Mose THE PRODUCTION OF GEOTHERMAL ENERGY In the
Philippines geothermal energy already provides 27% of the country's
total electricity production generated in power plants. Geothermal
power plants are on the islands Luzon, Negros, Mindanao and Leyte.

20. Nat. Sci. 4- Environmental Science/ECOLOGY Prepared by:
Bryan F. Mose Hydroelectricity Hydroelectricity centers in the
Philippines generate 2,900 megawatts of electricity, which is 19
percent of the country's total electricity consumption. The rate of
production has remained constant for decades, but there are plans
to introduce more hydroelectric centers.
23. Nat. Sci. 4- Environmental Science/ECOLOGY Prepared by:
Bryan F. Mose Hydroelectricity is the term referring to electricity
generated by hydropower. The production of electrical power through
the use of the gravitational force of falling or flowing
water.
24. Nat. Sci. 4- Environmental Science/ECOLOGY Prepared by:
Bryan F. Mose The heat inside the Earth produces steam and hot
water that can be used to power generators and produce electricity,
or for other applications such as home heating and power generation
for industry.
25. Nat. Sci. 4- Environmental Science/ECOLOGY Prepared by:
Bryan F. Mose The sun is our most powerful source of energy. Solar
energy, radiant light and heat from the sun, is harnessed using a
range of ever-evolving technologies such as solar heating,
photovoltaic, concentrated solar power, solar architecture and
artificial photosynthesis.
26. Nat. Sci. 4- Environmental Science/ECOLOGY Prepared by:
Bryan F. Mose Wind energy is captured by wind turbines and used to
generate electricity. As offshore wind speeds average ~90% greater
than that of land, so offshore resources can contribute
substantially more energy than land stationed turbines.
27. Nat. Sci. 4- Environmental Science/ECOLOGY Prepared by:
Bryan F. Mose Biomass is biological material derived from living,
or recently living organisms. It most often refers to plants or
plant-derived materials which are specifically called
lignocellulosic biomass. biomass includes plant or animal matter
that can be converted into fibers or other industrial chemicals,
including biofuels.
