__The Future Of Electricity__

The future of electricity will improve are environment and economy. In the future we will harness wind, water, sun, and many other alternative power supplies. The United States will have giant wind turbines that will transform wind power to electric power. When wind turns the turbines, they turn the kinetic energy in the wind into mechanical or electric energy. Wind farms, which are hundreds of wind turbines in a certain spot, will be set up all around North America. Hydro power (water power) is like wind power. The water that flows hits a water turbine. When water is flowing, the energy can be transformed into electric energy. They are just like wind turbines except water turn them instead of wind. Sun power is solar power. The suns heat hits a solar panel which then turns the heat into electricity. The electricity can be powerful enough to power some cars and some things in a house. I believe that solar power will be the best resource of electricity in the future. Solar power produces 1000X more energy per acre than wind power. I believe that solar power will produce enough power in the future to run businesses and other buildings. Are economy will become more stable because all the money that we save from electricity can go to other useful things that people need. The world would be a cleaner place because all the harmful gases that go into the air would be stopped. Presedent Obama wants to try out every alternative energy resources. He will create job opportunities for people that are out of jobs. media type="file" key="Jeff project.wmv"
