Gas Fired Power fact sheetWhen used in power generation particularly in a combined cycle system, gas fired power typically produces 50% less carbon dioxide (CO?) than conventional coal fired power plants. This fact sheets explains the gas fired electricity generation process and looks at its potential for Queensland. |
Liquefied Natural Gas fact sheetLiquefied natural gas (LNG) is a fossil fuel that when burned reduces carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions by 3060% in comparison with heavier hydrocarbon fuels. This fact sheet looks at LNG, its uses, how it is produced, shipped and stored and also the regasification process. |
Unit of Work - Low Emission Energy Sources - An Introduction (based on year 10 guidelines)As the urgency grows for the world to shift its energy dependence from non-renewable to a hybrid of energy fuel sources, a sound understanding of the science of the various technologies is increasingly important. Low emission energy sources which includes renewable and fossil fuel based energies such as gas and coal based energies incorporating carbon capture and sequestration are under intense discussion by policy makers worldwide. Suitable for year 10 in line with Queensland Studies Authority Year 10 Guidelines. |
