It is a Secondary Energy Source whichmeans that we get it from the conversion of other sources of Energy , like coal, natural gas,oil, nuclear power and other natural sources, which are called primary sources. The energysources we use to make ELECTRICITY can be renewable or non-renewable, but ELECTRICITY itselfis neither renewable or is a basic part of nature and it is one of our most widely used forms ofenergy. Many cities and towns were built alongside waterfalls (a primary Source ofmechanical Energy ) that turned water wheels to perform work. Before electricitygeneration began over 100 years ago, houses were lit with kerosene lamps, food was cooledin iceboxes, and rooms were warmed by wood-burning or coal-burning stoves.
granted. Everyday, we use electricity to do many jobs for us -- from lighting and heating/cooling our homes, to powering our televisions and computers. Electricity is a controllable and convenient form of energy used in the applications of heat, light and power. THE SCIENCE OF ELECTRICITY developed by the National Energy Education Development ...
