What examiners said
Most candidates stated one of the advantages of tidal generators. Suggestions such as not harming the environment or not polluting lacked sufficient detail.
— Examiner report, May/June 2023, 0654/43 Q6(c)(ii) (Cambridge)
Most candidates gained some credit but few were able to correctly identify all five energy resources. Geothermal was commonly incorrect.
— Examiner report, May/June 2019, 0654/33 Q9(a) (Cambridge)
Some candidates gained full credit here. Many vague answers about windy weather were given. A clear answer would have been to suggest that no electricity would be produced when there was no wind.
