Matching Power Generation Sources: A Detailed Explanation

This question requires matching different types of power generation methods listed in List I with their corresponding descriptions or sources found in List II. Let's break down each match:

Understanding Green Power and Bio-fuels Match

Green power and Bio-fuels refer to energy derived from renewable organic matter or processes that minimize environmental impact. Option (IV) describes a specific application: "Vehicle will run on ethanol made from sugar cane and jatropa seeds". Ethanol production from plants like sugar cane is a classic example of biofuel, making this a direct match.

List I (A): Green power and Bio-fuels
List II (IV): Vehicle will run on ethanol made from sugar cane and jatropa seeds

Analyzing Hydro-electric Power Match

Hydro-electric power is generated using the energy of moving water, typically from dams. Water is a renewable natural resource. Option (III) states: "Renewable natural resources". This aligns perfectly, as hydro-electric power relies fundamentally on the continuous availability of water resources.

List I (B): Hydro-electric power
List II (III): Renewable natural resources

Identifying Thermal Power Match

Thermal Power plants generate electricity by burning fossil fuels. Common fuels used in thermal power stations include coal and oil. Option (I) describes this accurately: "Generated by coal and oil". This is a standard definition for conventional thermal power generation.

List I (C): Thermal Power
List II (I): Generated by coal and oil

Explaining Nuclear Power Match

Nuclear Power utilizes nuclear reactions to generate heat, which then produces electricity. Compared to traditional sources like coal or hydro, nuclear power technology is more recent in its widespread application. Furthermore, its contribution to the total installed electricity capacity is often relatively small, frequently less than 3% globally or in specific regions, due to cost, safety, and waste disposal concerns. Option (II) states: "Recent origin and its supply accounts for less that 3% of the total installed capacity of electricity". This description fits the characteristics of nuclear power.

List I (D): Nuclear Power
List II (II): Recent origin and its supply accounts for less that 3% of the total installed capacity of electricity

Summary of Correct Matches

Based on the analysis, the correct pairings are:

(A) - (IV)
(B) - (III)
(C) - (I)
(D) - (II)

Therefore, the correct option representing these matches is (A) - (IV), (B) - (III), (C) - (I), (D) - (II).
