RENEWABLE ENERGY


 Biomass

Biomass fuels come from things that once lived: wood products, dried vegetation, crop residues, aquatic plants and even garbage. It is known as'Natural Material'. Plants used up a lot of the sun's energy to make their own food (photosynthesis).

Wind Power

Wind is caused by huge convection currents in the Earth's atmosphere, driven by heat energy from the Sun. This means as long as the sun shines, there will be wind.

Water power

Moving water has kinetic energy. This can be transferred into useful energy in different ways. Hydroelectric power (HEP) schemes store water high up in dams. The water has gravitational potential energy which is released when it falls. 

Geothermal energy

Deep down in the earth's crust, there is molten rock (magma). Molten rock is simply rocks that have melted into liquid form as a result of extreme heat under the earth.

Solar power

Solar power is energy from the sun. "Solar" is the Latin word for "sun" and it's a powerful source of energy. Without it, there will be no life. Solar energy is considered as a serious source of energy for many years because of the vast amounts of energy that is made freely available, if harnessed by modern technology.

Marine (Ocean) Energy

The oceans have an incredible amount of power and energy potential. Even though the marine energy technology has not fully delivered on its potential, there has been, in recent time, a number of areas in marine energy that has kicked off.
