14. Video clip on Hydroelectric power

15. Once the dam is built, the energy is free. No waste or pollution produced. Much more reliable than wind, solar or wave power. Water can be stored above the dam ready to cope with peaks in demand. Electricity can be generated constantly. Advantages

17. Wind power Windmills are built together in a “wind farm.”

20. Video clip about Wind power

21. How good an area for wind power is GA?

24. Solar power Several ways to use the sun for power!

25. Solar cells to make electricity like your solar calculator does.

26. Info on picture Solar power plants that can produce large amounts of electricity instead of for one house.

27. Places where solar power plants would work!

28. We even use solar power in orbit! Why would that be a good way to power satellites? Video clip on solar power

30. Doesn't work at night. Very expensive to build solar power stations. Solar cells cost a lot to make. Can be unreliable unless you're in a very sunny climate. Disadvantages

31. Nuclear Power is a nonrewable but alternative energy/

33. This is steam, not polluted air!

34. Video clip on nuclear power

37. Geothermal energy The earth has lots of heat inside!

38. Sometimes it is very close to the surface.
