N
TYPES OF ENERGY

• Energy can be broadly divided into two


categories-
• Renewable Energy
• Non Renewable Energy
RENEWABLE ENERGY
• Renewable energy can be
generated continuously practically
without decay of source. E.g.-
• Solar Energy
• Wind Energy
• Geothermal Energy
• Hydro Energy
NON RENEWABLE
ENERGY
• Non renewable energy cannot be generated
again and again, e.g. energy generated from
combustion of fossil fuels, energy from coal
and gas etc.
ENERGY
• Energy can neither be generated nor it can
be destroyed. It can only be converted from
one form to another.
• For example, in a room heater, electrical
energy is converted to the thermal energy.
• Turbine converts mechanical energy stored
in steam to electrical energy.
WHY TO CONSERVE?

• We have limited fuels


available on earth.
• Our demand for energy
is increasing day-by-day.
• It is possible that
someday, most of fuels
will be exhausted, and
we will have to switch
over to alternate energy.
ENERGY CONSERVATION IN
INDIA

• In India, government has passed “Energy


Conservation Bill, 2001” for better utilization
of energy and conservation of the same.
• By this act, it is mandatory for energy
intensive sectors to get their “Energy Audit”
conducted by accredited energy auditor.
WHAT CAN WE DO?
• We, the children can do our bit to save
energy. We should not waste energy in
school or at home.
IN SCHOOL
• Always switch off lights and fans while
going out of the class.

• In computer lab, we should switch off


computers before going out of class.

• In computer lab, we should switch off


computers before going out of class.
AT HOME
• We should not keep light and fan
unnecessarily switched on.
• Tell mother to take material out from fridge if
it is to be heated, some time earlier so that
cooking gas consumption is low.
• We should not open fridge door frequently.
