What is Energy?

• Energy “The ability to do work”.

• Remember: The amount of energy in the universe is constant, but it flows in a one way path

What are the 2 major laws???- 1st and 2nd Law of thermodynamics

What are the 6 major forms?- light, chemical, nuclear, mechanical, electrical, heat

It takes energy to get energy

• Before it’s useful…

Oil must be 1. Found2. Pumped3. Transported4. Refined5. Transported6. burned

Page 21: Energy – Where does it come from? ES 302. Objectives What is energy? What forms does it come in & how do we use it? Understand that ALL sources of energy

Net energy

• Total useful energy available from the resource over its lifetime minus the amount of energy used and wasted

• Example: – 10 units of energy in oil in ground– Use 8 units to find, extract, process, transport– How much net energy available?

• 2 units

Energy Quality

• Second Law: In any energy conversion, you will end up with lower quality (less usable) energy than you started with.

• QUALITY = The measure of the energy’s ability to be used to produce mechanical or electrical energy

• Low temperature heat has the LOWEST quality

Energy Efficiency

• Amount of energy that gets converted to useful energy.

Discuss the following questions…1. What is global warming?...climate change? Are

they the same?

2. What have you heard about it?

3. Do you think it’s “real?”

Climate change vs. Global warming

• Climate change - major changes in climate (temperature, rainfall, snow, or wind patterns) lasting for decades or longer.

• Global warming - average increase in temperatures near the Earth’s surface and in the lowest layer of the atmosphere. – One form of climate change

Global warming

• In specific terms, an increase of 1 or more Celsius degrees in a period of 100 – 200 years would be considered global warming.

• Over the course of a single century, an increase of even 0.4 degrees Celsius would be significant.

Did you beat Mrs. Loch?• You analyzed your (presumed) usage of electricity

– That energy is secondary

• Primary Energy Resources: The fossil fuels(oil, gas, and coal), nuclear energy, falling water, geothermal, and solar energy.

• Secondary Energy Resources: Those sources which are derived from primary resources such as electricity, fuels from coal, (synthetic natural gas and synthetic gasoline), as well as alcohol fuels.

What if I left my computer on every night…

How much energy would it consume? Assume 14 hours

• In “sleep” mode, the computer draws 4 watts/hour

How much would it cost the district per day? Per year?• 1 kWh costs $0.15

What if all computers at the school were left on? Energy consumed? Cost to district?

• Around 200 computers at UDHS

What is our best immediate energy option?

1. Cut out unnecessary energy waste by improving energy efficiency

2. Transition to a renewable or solar age– Sun, wind, flowing water, biomass, geothermal,

hydrogen gas

3. Burn more coal & synthetic gas/liquids4. Natural gas5. Nuclear power

No matter what our decision…

Ask:

• How much will be available in the next 15 years? the next 30 years? longterm?

• What is the source’s net energy yield?

• How much will it cost to develop, phase in, and use this energy resource?

• How will extracting, transporting, and using the energy resource affect the environment?

• Can this energy source help us sustain the earth?
