Supplying energy

[NE2000]

What exactly do we need to remember about the electricity generation processes and things like nuclear power generation and wind farms and solar farms. I just never associated these things with chemistry much (more like physics) but my book's got a quite a bit on it.

Just background knowledge, efficiencies, pros and cons, not too much, but not too little. [You get out what you put in, if you spend time doing detailed research on each of the energy generation processes, you'll have a much better understanding with benefits and issues related to them, but it's not a huge portion of the course so it's really up to you how much you want to prepare yourself for]

Thanks, just wanted to know if my textbook was going a bit off topic (as it does sometimes) and what to put into my notes. I did the alternate energy sources detailed study in Unit Two Phyics last year so most of the pros and cons and stuff seem like revision of last year's physics material, which created the confusion as to what is required knowledge.
