Text from page-4

1.Energy: 1.1 Global Scene: Energy is highly essential for the growth of the developing and developed countries. This has direct impact on socioeconomic groups of nations. The demand of energy varies from country to country. The energy sources available are classified into two sources of energy. (a) Primary energy sources: The energy sources are available in nature such as coal, oil, wind, solar, biogas, geothermal and ocean energy; are termed as primary energy sources. Some of these are directly used for energy supply like burning fuel in furnaces, transportation purposes etc. 4
