Practice Reading: Multiple Choice, Single Answer ID: #36169 Hexafluoride
Instructions
Emissions of sulphur hexafluoride, the strongest greenhouse gas in the Earth’s atmosphere, have increased dramatically in the past few years. This colourless greenhouse gas has multiple uses, including acting as an insulator in electrical installations. Aside from being an insulator in circuit breakers and switches, sulphur hexafluoride is utilised to inhibit fires. However, when installed, it does result in some emissions into the atmosphere. Renewable energy installations require more circuit breakers and switches in their electricity grids due to having more wind turbines and solar panels. Therefore, as renewable energy production expands, there is likely to be an associated rise in sulphur hexafluoride emissions.
