Blank space 8 empty
Start-up costs moderate; overall operating and fuel costs comparatively low
Fuel nonrenewable; contributes to greenhouse gas levels
Blank space 9 empty
Start-up cost low; fuel/operating costs comparatively low
Fuel nonrenewable; efficient use of fuel reduces greenhouse impact
Blank space 10 empty
High start-up costs; zero fuel cost
Renewable, no effect on greenhouse gases; may disrupt lithosphere
Blank space 11 empty
Moderately high start-up costs; zero fuel cost; needs a back-up system
Renewable energy source, no greenhouse gases; noisy; impacts bird populations
Blank space 12 empty
