Energy Resources
• Resources which used to generate energy or gives
power , heat to drive objects. Matter that stores
energy is called fuel. Classified into:
• Conventional
• Non Conventional.
Conventional
• Usage/Period- C.S hsve been used since the early times.
• Availability- limited amount, cannot depend for
future. Nature- Exhaustible in nature lasts for few years
Renewability- Once used they cannot be renewed.
• Response to env.- causes air,water and land pollution as
they leave smoke and residue. Cost- require huge capital
investment Ex-Coal,petroleum etc
Non-Conventional
• Non-Conventional have been come into use recently.
• Av. In abundance for future use.
• Inexhaustible in nature going to last forever if judiciously used.
• Renewed in short period.
• They are eco friendly as do not cause pollution and leave residue.
• Comparatively cheaper. Solar,wind,etc

v
Coal
• Coal is an inflammable organic substance composed of
carbons found in sedimentary rocks.
• • Formation- C is formed due to compression of plant
material under heat and pressure over million of years.
• • Variety of forms depending ona. Degree of
compression b. Depth c. Time of Burial.
With depth and pressure
Places
• Jharkhand- Jh,Bokaro
• Bengal- Raniganj,Damodar valley(WB-JH)
• Ch- Korba
• O- Talcher
• TN- Neyveli
• M.P- Singrauli.
Petroleum
• Petroleum or mineral oil is next energy after coal. Crude
oil. Coal cant be used for road vehicle and transportation
• Uses- fuel for heat and lighting
• Generation of electricity
• Lubricants for machinery
• Raw material for manufacturing industries.
• Used in vehicles
Petroleum

Formation- Petroleum
formed due to compression
Ex- On-shore
of animals or human beings
(Animals/Human Beings) •
over million years under
Off-Shore(Marine creatures)
great heat and pressure.(Fat
turned into oil).
Occurrences with Anticlines and Synclines
Occurences
• Petroleum found in sedimentary rocks.
• Petroleum occurred in India in association with Anticlines and
fault traps in the rock formation of tertiary age.
• It occurs where oil is trapped in crest of up fold.
• The oil bearing layer is a porous limestone or sandstone through
which rising or sinking by intervening non-porous layer.
Natural Gas
• An imp clean energy bcz do not left residue and produces less
pollution thus called environment friendly.(fuel for the
pr.century- low carbon dioxide emission )
• Found/Occurences- found in association with or without
petroleum.
