                        1. Gas
                          1. Nuclear
                          2. Non-Renewable
                            1. Non renewables are mainly stored energy and they will run out. They are the FOSSIL FUELS and NUCLEAR
                              1. The fossil fuels are coal, oil and gas and nuclear fuels are uranium and plutonium.
                                1. Do ALOT of damage to the environment, but provide alot of energy with it.
                                2. Generating electricity - Non Renewables
                                  1. Coal is heated in a furnace to heat water to make steam, the steam turns a turbine which turns a generator which make electricity
                                    1. Nuclear does the same thing but with uranium and plutonium fuel rods
                                    2. Generating electricity - Renewables
                                      1. Wind
