- encompass a wide array of natural outlets and reservoirs of energy that can be tapped into, transformed, and employed to fulfill human requirements and facilitate energy provision for a multitude of uses
- resources that can be easily replaced on a human timescale
- naturally regenerate relatively quickly and have a limited environmental footprint
- governs the development, utilization, and commercialization of energy resources in the Philippines.
- derived from the sun's radiation and converted into electrical energy through photovoltaic or solar panels
- another way to harness solar energy is through the use of concentrated solar power or solar thermal system.
- describes the process by which the wind is used to generate mechanical power or electricity
- it is indirect form of solar energy
- this type of energy is one of the primary suppliers of electricity in the world due to its reliability and low-cost production .
- is a facility that has the capacity to generate electricity of more than 30 megawatts.
- has a capacity of 101 kilowatts to 10 megawatts. It can produce electricity to power a home, farm, ranch or village.
- has a capacity of 10-100 kilowatts. It can produce electricity enough to power a home, farm, ranch or village.
- grants incentives and privileges to mini-hydroelectric power developers and entrepreneurs to develop a potential sites for hydroelectric power in their locations.
- the Clean Water Act
- the Clean Air Act
- RA 9003
- are finite sources of energy that require millions of years to develop and are typically obtained from the Earth's crust
- made up primarily of carbon and hydrogen) based energy sources that are derived from the remains of ancient plants and animals that lived millions of years ago.
- -its material is primarily composed of carbon and variable quantities of other elements such as oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, and sulfur.
- is the process of coal formation wherein plants in a swamp on the edge of a sedimentary basin
- where largest deposit of coal is found.
- originates from the remains of plants , animals, and microorganisms that live million years ago.
- it is a cleanest of all the fossil fuels
- process of drilling rocks straight down to where the natural gas is thought to be deposited.
- are gases found in porous or permeable rock beds or mixed oil reservoirs, which can be extracted through drilling.
- -is the largest power plant that uses natural gas sourced from the Camago-Malampaya gas field in Palawan.
- is where the largest natural gas reserve is concentrated.
- form of power generated through the process of nuclear fission, which involves splitting the nuclei of atoms.
