Renewable energy is energy that originates from natural sources‚ which is a continuing and nonpolluting energy that is replenished due to its perpetual natural motion. These sources are commonly solar‚ geothermal‚ wind and tidal energies. Comparing different countries’ use of renewable energies -- in Portugal this year‚ close to 45 percent of its electricity will come from renewable energy sources (Rosenthal‚ 2010).

Energy is the fuel that runs the engine of the world economy. Believe it or not our need for energy is not primarily to run economies but intrinsically to create order in the world. Wind energy Wind energy is the kinetic energy associated with the movement of atmospheric air. It has been used for hundreds of years for sailing‚ grinding grain‚ and for irrigation. Wind energy systems convert this kinetic energy to more useful forms of power. Wind energy systems for irrigation and milling have been

Energy Resources and their Uses in Producing Electricity Renewable energy is energy drawn from natural processes that are restored quicker than they are used up‚ some renewable energy resources are biomass‚ food‚ wind‚ waves‚ flowing water‚ solar and geothermal. The sun however‚ is known to be the ultimate energy resource since almost all energy resources originate from the sun’s energy. This is possible according to the law of conservation of energy which states that energy can’t be destroyed

Renewable energy is energy that comes from resources which are continually replenished such as sunlight‚ wind‚ rain‚ tides‚ waves and geothermal heat. About 16% of global final energy consumption comes from renewable resources‚ with 10% of all energy from traditional biomass‚ mainly used for heating‚ and 3.4% from hydroelectricity. New renewables (small hydro‚ modern biomass‚ wind‚ solar‚ geothermal‚ and biofuels) accounted for another 3% and are growing very rapidly.[1] The share of renewables in
