Question 1 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

The table shows data for four different power stations. | Power station | Power output / MW | Type of fuel | |--------------|-------------------|---------------| | P | 2000 | coal | | Q | 500 | natural gas | | R | 50 | biomass | | S | 1200 | nuclear | Which power station uses a renewable energy resource?

  1. P
  2. Q
  3. R
  4. S
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: CR
Award 1 mark for identifying biomass as the only renewable resource. A is incorrect — coal is a fossil fuel (non-renewable). B is incorrect — natural gas is a fossil fuel (non-renewable). D is incorrect — nuclear fuel (uranium) is finite and classified as non-renewable.
Question 2 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

Which of the following is a renewable energy resource?

  1. coal
  2. natural gas
  3. nuclear fuel
  4. wind
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: Dwind
Award 1 mark for identifying wind as renewable. A is incorrect — coal is a fossil fuel formed over millions of years and is non-renewable. B is incorrect — natural gas is also a fossil fuel and non-renewable. C is incorrect — nuclear fuel (uranium) is extracted from finite reserves and is classified as non-renewable.

CIE IGCSE Physics: Energy resources FAQ

How many CIE IGCSE Physics questions on Energy resources are there on Kramizo?
Kramizo currently has 20 exam-board-aligned practice questions on Energy resources for CIE IGCSE Physics, with new questions added every week. Each question gives you instant feedback and a full examiner-style mark scheme that tells you exactly what would earn marks on a real CIE paper. The questions span the full difficulty range — from straightforward recall (level 1) right up to multi-step reasoning and evaluation (level 3) — so the bank works for first-pass revision and final exam-week stress testing alike.
Is Kramizo free for CIE IGCSE students preparing for Physics?
Yes — completely free. Every student gets 45 questions a day on the free plan, with no card required and no trial countdown. That free quota works across every subject and every topic in our bank, so you can mix Energy resources practice with other Physics topics or even switch to a totally different CIE subject without paying anything. Kramizo's optional Pro plan removes the daily cap and adds detailed progress analytics, but the free tier is the real product — used by thousands of GCSE, IGCSE and CSEC students.
Are the Energy resources questions aligned to the official CIE IGCSE Physics syllabus?
Every question is written against the published CIE IGCSE Physics specification, including the exact command words (state, describe, explain, calculate, evaluate, etc.), mark allocations, and difficulty tier you'd see on a real CIE paper. Explanations are written in the style of official examiner mark schemes — they tell you what is being awarded marks and why distractors are wrong, not just whether you got it right. The bank is continually refined to match the latest syllabus updates from CIE.
How is Energy resources typically tested on CIE IGCSE Physics papers?
Energy resources appears across multiple question types on real CIE IGCSE Physics papers — most commonly as multiple-choice questions in the objective section, structured short-answer questions in the main paper, and occasionally as part of an extended response. Kramizo's practice bank reflects that mix: 4-option MCQs, true/false statements, fill-in-the-blank key terms, multi-select questions, and ordering questions. Working through the bank gives you exposure to every question style examiners actually use.
