Section C: The challenge of resource management
Question
- A. They are always cheaper than fossil fuels
- B. They reduce reliance on imported fuels
- C. They produce more energy than needed
- D. They are available in unlimited quantities
Answer
The correct answer is They reduce reliance on imported fuels.
Explanation
The correct option is They reduce reliance on imported fuels. They reduce reliance on imported fuels is correct because it directly matches the approved learning objective to use a local LIC or NEE renewable energy scheme example to explain sustainable energy supply. This belongs to Energy (optional route) within Section C: The challenge of resource management, so the answer must stay focused on the geographical process, evidence, place, or impact named by the curriculum. The other options are weaker because they move away from Energy (optional route), reverse the geographical relationship, or make a broader claim than the objective supports.
Common mistake
Misunderstanding Renewable Energy Schemes
Students often confuse the benefits of renewable energy schemes with those of non-renewable energy sources, failing to explain how a specific local LIC or NEE renewable energy scheme contributes to sustainable energy supply.
Focus on the unique aspects of the renewable energy scheme, such as its environmental benefits, community impact, and how it reduces reliance on fossil fuels. Use specific examples from the scheme to illustrate these points.
