About Energy Resources and Security
GoConqr OriginalWhat this page covers
The resources here follow energy supply, demand and security in Geography. Many are mind maps, and they take you from the basics to case studies. UK Energy mix sorts renewables and fossil fuels, while Wind Energy sets out how turbines work, plus their advantages and disadvantages. The India Case Study mind map lists key facts and the shares of thermal, hydroelectric, nuclear and wind power in energy supply.
Where to start
Begin with a broad map. Energy Security: Energy Supply, Demand and Security covers sources of energy, renewable and non-renewable, and energy consumption. Energy Issues then points to global patterns of supply and trade, energy conservation, environmental impacts and geopolitics. Once the vocabulary feels familiar, move to the case studies.
- Read a broad map on energy sources and security.
- Move to a country map such as the India Case Study.
- Check key terms with a flashcard deck, such as Energy Security Key Terms.
- Finish with a quiz.
Using quizzes and maps together
The quizzes are a small set, but they are focused. China vs UK (Case Study) and Corrib gas case study let you test what you remember from the maps. Another, Gwynt y Mor case Study, covers a single named scheme. Take a quiz, note what you got wrong, then go back to the matching map and read that branch again.
The notes add detail. Titles such as Energy Security Exam Questions and Oil Exam Qu suit anyone practicing exam-style answers. Some resources mention A-level Geography, GCSE Geography and IB, so check that a resource matches your course.
Where this unit sits
This unit belongs to the strand Ecosystems, Environments and Resources in Geography. It sits beside other resource and environment topics, so the energy case studies here make a useful reference point when you compare places.
Teachers can pick a map or slide set to use in class. Students can choose one resource today and see how far it takes them.
Frequently asked questions
Which resource should I open first?
Start with a broad mind map such as Energy Security: Energy Supply, Demand and Security. It lays out renewable and non-renewable sources and energy consumption. After that, pick a case study map, like the India Case Study or UK Energy mix, to see how the ideas apply to real places.
Are these resources free to use?
Yes. Every resource listed here is free to open, study and take, with no account needed. They were made by GoConqr users, not by GoConqr itself. If you create a free account, you can also save your quiz scores and make your own quizzes, mind maps, flashcards and notes.
What do the mind maps cover?
There are over 250 mind maps. They cover energy sources, the UK energy mix, wind energy, demand for oil, energy poverty and risks of disruption. Others focus on places, including India, China, the USA and Mali. Some follow the questions of a course unit on energy security.
Which levels and exams do these suit?
The resources are almost all at school level, so they suit school students. Some mention A-level Geography, GCSE Geography or IB. Teachers can use them as ready-made material. Because the content comes from different contributors, check the title and excerpt to see whether it fits your course.
Are there quizzes on case studies?
Yes. The page lists a small set of quizzes, with more than 10 in total. Titles include China vs UK (Case Study), Corrib gas case study, Gwynt y Mor case Study and Chad and Norway energy supply. They work well after reading the matching mind map or notes.
What if I cannot find the topic I need?
Try a nearby title. Oil, nuclear power, wind, fracking and energy conflicts each have their own flashcards, notes or slides. If a topic is still missing, you can build your own mind map or flashcards with a free account and keep them for later.
