QUIZ 2 - Renewable Energy

Test your Knowledge of energy

What is Solar PV?

A means to convert heat into electricity

A solar panel system that gathers energy to heat water

A system of calculation the Present Value of Solar financially

PV stands for Photovoltaic. Solar PV systems absorb the sun's rays and convert them into electrical energy

What is a Solar Thermal system?

A set of panels that turns the sun's rays into hot water for domestic use, and if large enough to provide heat

A method of beaming solar energy over vast distances using heat rays

An array of panels that take up and entire roof space and make electrical energy

Mirrors heat up a central column and this becomes molten. The energy developed is then passed through turbines to generate electricity.

What is a Heat Pump?

Heat pumps are devices that pump heat out of your home to keep you cool in summer

Heat pumps contain a huge fan to drive heat around your home via your electrical heating system

A heat pump is a machine that heats your home. It works like an electric radiator.

A heat pump is a machine that extracts energy from air, land or water outside and pumps it indoors to heat help heat your home

The amount of energy a wind turbine produces is mostly determined by

The diameter of its blades

The wind speed

The height of the turbine

Its type

Micro-Hydro power, if well situated and designed, with a fast flow of water all year around, is a good source of energy because

it provides a consistent source of energy

it provides an intermittent source of energy, but at least it can run at night

its cheaper than any other form or renewable energy

it never breaks down and doesn't need any servicing

Battery storage is often nowadays linked to Solar panels, wind turbines and small scale hydro to store

Kinetic energy

Heat Energy

Nuclear Energy

Electrical Energy

All forms of Micro-Energy help you reduce 4 things

energy, light, work and stress

energy, your energy bills, CO2 emissions and air pollution

energy, your energy bills, CO2 emissions and your bank balance

energy, CO2 emissions, air pollution and heat loss from your home

Try these tests out for fun! If you do our courses you should be able to do the Medium and Harder tests easily. Try to score 5 out of 7. Good Luck!
