anyone use solar energy as an alternative energy to solve the world’s pollution problem? As humans‚ everyday we burn many different types of fossil fuels to produce ourselves electricity and to power up our vehicles‚ and so we create a lot of pollution‚ making this our own fault. With our modern technology and the abundance of the sun’s energy‚ solar energy has the ability to provide the world with electricity and different types of fluid (“Solar Energy”). Solar energy is ?e energy source. It is also

Assignment 4: Bataan Nuclear Power Plant The Bataan Nuclear Power Plant (BNPP) is located in Morong‚ Bataan and was constructed under the administration of President Ferdinand Ferdinand Marcos during the Martial Law period. Westinghouse was contracted to build the light water reactor‚ deign to produce 621 megawatts of electricity. This power plant was constructed under loan $600 million for two units but controversially it ballooned up to $2.3 billion. After The Marcos’ was thrown to Hawaii‚ the

Flywheel energy storage works by accelerating a rotor (flywheel) to a very high speed and maintaining the energy in the system as rotational energy. The energy is converted back by slowing down the flywheel.Flywheel energy storage system is one form of energy storage devices. It is basically a rechargeable battery. It is used to absorb electric energy from a source‚ store it as kinetic energy of rotation‚ and then deliver it to a load at the appropriate time‚ in the form that meets the load needs
