The US residential sector energy consumption from 1949-2021 is in the attached Excel file. The data comprises the energy consumption for the residential sector using different fossil fuels each year starting from 1949. For example, in 1949, the energy produced from coal was 1271.551 while natural gas was 1027.283 etc. Geothermal energy consumed by the residential sector is Not Available, showing that the technology is not yet developed or properly commercialized. Your assignment is to read and understand the data and write a report by completing the following tasks. 1. Define the terms renewable resource and nonrenewable resource and give examples of each resource type? 2. Witch is better renewable or non-renewable energy? Support your answer? 3. From the excel file: Plot each fuel consumed VS year (Example is given in Figure 1) a. Annual Total VS Coal b. Annual Total VS Coal d. Annual Total VS Natural gas f. Annual Total VS Geothermal Annual Total VS Solar h. Annual Total VS Biomass Annual Total VS Total Primary Energy Consumed j. by the Residential Sector C. e. g. i. Annual Total VS Natural gas Annual Total VS Petroleum k. Annual Total VS Total Energy Consumed by the Residential Sector 4. Analyze the data using graphs (for example, Figure 1 shows that coal usage is decreasing due to its negative impact on the environment) 5. Gather similar data for KSA and complete Tasks 1 and 2 The following table demonstrates the distribution of given assignments among the various groups.
