Impacts of wind power:
•Land use
•Noise
•Visual impact
•Bird/bat disruption
#Lesson7

[Kyle Petel-Smorodenski @petel_kyle]

Wow! Thats incredible!

[mattmanci @mattmanci]

In 2014, canada had 542 hydroelectric stations! who knew! #Lesson7

[Kyle Petel-Smorodenski @petel_kyle]

Hydro Quebec is the main power generator in our province. With has a total of 59 hydroelectric facilities which are located across the province!!!! #PHYS273 #Lesson7

[Kyle Petel-Smorodenski @petel_kyle]

Hydro Quebec has four million customers and exports the reminder of electricity to external markets that is mainly for the united states and other provinces and territories of Canada. The More You Know! #PHYS273 #lesson7

[Kyle Petel-Smorodenski @petel_kyle]

In the United states the most used energy source is Natural gases of 31.8% shocking. #PHYS273

[Kyle Petel-Smorodenski @petel_kyle]

This course really teaches me about the implications each energy source has on our environment. Its important to know where energy comes from and how the government could improve to better our society and cities. #PHYS273 #Lesson7

[Kyle Petel-Smorodenski @petel_kyle]

If you really think about how much as humans we rely on Electricity and Energy on the daily. Right now typing this on twitter, to keeping our food cold. To warming up on food. We constantly need electricity. #PHYS273

[Rakishan S @RakishanSiva]

crazy how oil temperature can reach up up 400 degrees celsius #lesson6

[Kyle Petel-Smorodenski @petel_kyle]

Hydrooo!!

[Kyle Petel-Smorodenski @petel_kyle]

Yes! Definitely.

[Sinead Orr @SineadOrr2]

There are so many benefits to Hydropower; it is cost competitive, reliable, a source of base load power, and flood controlling!

[Kyle Petel-Smorodenski @petel_kyle]

@GakhNir Definitely. With no Sun Theres no existence of humans or planets. Regardless of Light or Warm. ITs about the gravity pull and the creation of our entire solar system. #PHYS273

[Kyle Petel-Smorodenski @petel_kyle]

@Taieb273 Lets hope it keeps becoming more efficient, therefore we can rely more on solar energy. #PHYS273

[Kyle Petel-Smorodenski @petel_kyle]

Lets hope that doesn't happen. Quebec relies heavily on the Dams to produce the majority of our personal Electricity. #Phys273 #Lesson7

[Damiano Verrillo @VerrilloDamiano]

Imagine if a dam breaks... like the Hoover Dam, what would happen to all the people relying on that source of power? #lesson7

[Adib Ahmed Choudhury @ChoudhuryAdib]

It was great learning about all these different types of powers: hydro, wind, tidal, etc! #Lesson7

[Kyle Petel-Smorodenski @petel_kyle]

Yes The sun is the strongest at 12! Therefore people should watch out. Thats when the most sunburns occur.

[Rakishan S @RakishanSiva]

is the sun more intense during noon time ? #lesson6

[Kyle Petel-Smorodenski @petel_kyle]

Energy Industry !

[Giacomo-Cristopher Messina @GiacomoCristop1]

Natural Gas Use In Canada:
Energy Industry: 34%
REsidential: 18%
Commercial and Institutional 13%
Industrial 22%
Generation of Electricity 13%

#Lesson5 #FossilFuels

[Kyle Petel-Smorodenski @petel_kyle]

Interesting to know. Its the distance from the Sun to the earth and all the other atomsphere layers that take away from the light energy. #PHYS273

[Giacomo-Cristopher Messina @GiacomoCristop1]

On a clear dat only about 24% of light energy makes it from the upper atmosphere to the surface! #Lesson6

[Kyle Petel-Smorodenski @petel_kyle]

I find it interesting how the Quebec Dams use the water flow and speed to generate energy. This is excellent for the environment and sustainable. #PHYS273 #Lesson7

[Kyle Petel-Smorodenski @petel_kyle]

Most energy produced by Coal is used for Electricity in Canada. #PHYS273

[Kyle Petel-Smorodenski @petel_kyle]

Did you know that the Energy Industry uses the most amount of natural gases in Canada! #PHYS273
