Electricity Generation: Non-Renewables

Synopsis

Educational DVD aimed at KS 3-5. Fossil Fuels and nuclear energy still account for over 60% of the UK’s electricity generation and in some countries their use is even on the rise. As well as containing clear explanations and graphics to illustrate how energy from coal, gas and uranium is used to generate electricity, this resource explores the pros and cons of each fuel source. It includes debates around nuclear safety, fracking and carbon capture and storage. Used together with the "Electricity Generation: Renewables" DVD, it will provide students with a complete insight into current energy debates.
