Offshore wind power or offshore wind energy is the use of wind farms constructed in bodies of water, usually in the ocean on the continental shelf, to harvest wind energy to generate electricity. Higher wind speeds are available offshore compared to on land, so offshore wind power’s contribution in terms of electricity supplied is higher.

refinery or petroleum refinery is an industrial process plant where crude oil is processed and refined into more useful products such as petroleum
3
is radiant light and heat from the Sun that is harnessed using a range of ever-evolving technologies such as solar heating, photovoltaics, solar thermal energy, solar architecture, molten salt power plants and artificial photosynthesis.]
4
or tidal energy is a form of hydropower that converts the energy obtained from tides into useful forms of power, mainly electricity.
5
relating to or produced by the internal heat of the earth. "some 70% of Iceland's energy needs are met from geothermal sources"
6
is a combustible black or brownish-black sedimentary rock usually occurring in rock strata in layers or veins called coal beds or coal seams is a fossil fuel that forms when dead plant matter is converted into peat, which in turn is converted into lignite.
7
It is the energy that holds neutrons and protons. In nuclear fusion, energy is released when atoms are combined or fused together to form a larger atom. The sun produces energy like this. In nuclear fission, atoms are split into smaller atoms, releasing energy. Actually, nuclear power plants can only use nuclear fission to produce electricity. fusion and nuclear fission. In nuclear fusion, energy is
8
a prolonged period of abnormally low rainfall; a shortage of water resulting from this.
9
a type of alcohol refined from plants (such as corn) which can be burned to release energy.
10
a colorless, transparent, odorless, tasteless liquid that forms the seas, lakes, rivers, and rain and is the basis of the fluids of living organisms.
11
an overflowing of a large amount of water beyond its normal confines, especially over what is normally dry land.
12
Rain is liquid water in the form of droplets that have condensed from atmospheric water vapor and then becomes heavy enough to fall under gravity. Rain is a major component of the water cycle and is responsible for depositing most of the fresh water on the Earth.
13
iIt is a visible mass of small water droplets or ice particles which are suspended in the sky.
14
atmospheric water vapor frozen into ice crystals and falling in light white flakes or lying on the ground as a white layer.
15
small balls of ice that fall like rain from the sky.
