Scientists predict a steady increase in the the use of renewable energy resources, especially of wind energy. It is predicted that by the end of 2014, the use of wind energy will increase to 17% of the renewable energy resources. If that increase occurs and the total amount of BTU's remains constant, what else should also happen? A) All energy use will increase. B) The total amount of energy use will decrease.

increase in the the use of renewable energy.

What are Renewable and non-renewable sources of Energy?

Renewable sources of energy are forms of energy which are replenished

naturally and examples include:

  • Solar energy
  • Wind energy etc.

Non- renewable sources of energy are forms of energy which are not

replenished naturally and examples include:

  • Crude oil
  • Coal

In the pie chart which contains renewable and non-renewable forms of

energy, a decrease in the non-renewable piece will bring about a

corresponding increase in the the use of renewable for equilibrium to be

maintained.
