advantages and disadvantages of electricity.


Dear Student,
                        

Advantages

  • It is transportable over long distances
  • It can be used produce magnetic fields, which can be used to propel motors
  • It is very transformable
  • It is very fast, virtually the speed of light
  • It can be used to produce other forms of radiant energy, such as radio waves, microwaves, radiant heat and light
 

Disadvantages

  • It can kill you
  • We become dependent on it
  • We use other dirtier forms of energy (nuclear, fossil fuels) to produce it
  • There is growing concern that the magnetic fields around transmission lines may be unhealthy
  • Change in river or stream quality
  • Cost for construction

DISADVANTAGES
  • We use other dirtier forms of energy (nuclear, fossil fuels) to produce it.
  • There is growing concern that the magnetic fields around transmission lines may be unhealthy.
  • Electricity can cause pollution if it is generated by fossil fuels, or nuclear energy.
  • High investment costs
  • Dependent on precipitation
  • Sometimes messes up wildlife
  • Loss of fish species
  • Change in river or stream quality
  • Cost for construction
  • Hydroelectric power production require flooding of entire valleys and scenic areas.
  • Disrupts natural seasonal changes in he river, and ecosystems can be destroyed.
  • Ends flooding that help to clean out the silt in rivers, causing them to clog (Energy Laboratory).
  • The silt that usually flows down to the Beaches and Estuaries is block by the dam.
