Study Notes
Classification of Energy Resources in the Philippines
- RA 9513 classifies energy resources in the Philippines into two categories: renewable and non-renewable energy resources.
Characteristics of Renewable and Non-Renewable Energy Resources
- Renewable energy resources are sustainable and can be replenished naturally, such as solar, wind, and hydro power.
- Non-renewable energy resources are finite and cannot be replenished, such as fossil fuels like coal, oil, and natural gas.
Formation of Fossil Fuels
- The process of coalification protects the buried plant debris from air and slows down the decomposition, resulting in the formation of fossil fuels.
- The rise in sea level millions of years ago caused the killing of vegetation in swamps, leading to the formation of coal and other fossil fuels.
- The giant plants and ferns that covered Earth millions of years ago were buried and converted into fossil fuels through the process of coalification.
