Renewable energy comes from many commonly known sources such as solar power‚ wind‚ hydro power‚ Fuel cells etc. 1.1.2: Why renewable energy? It may not be wrong to say that Renewable energy is playing significant part in fulfilling world’s energy requirement. According

The State Of The Art Renewable Energy And Technology. Presented by Mirza Abdul Basit Beigh And ‚ Civil Deptt. ‚ SRM University‚ Kattangulathur‚ Tamil Nadu Abstract: Energy continues to be a major constraint in achieving socioeconomic growth in developing countries. Recent studies indicate that current patterns of energy consumption and anticipated growth of demand in developing countries risk becoming unsustainable in the long run and hence countries need to focus on sustainable energy strategies

1. Introduction • VN is relatively endowed with multiform renewable energy (RE) resources which are distributed through-out the country. They can be exploited for production of energy to meet rapidly increasing energy demand as well as environmental protection. • Main RE resources in VN are small hydro power‚ biomass energy‚ wind energy‚ solar energy‚ and geothermal energy. • So far‚ even the high potential of RE resources‚ their contribution in electricity production in Vietnam is still negligible

At present‚ fossil fuels are readily accessible. These fuels are easy to use‚ and a simple combustion procedure turns them into energy for running a vehicle‚ generating electricity and/or heat. Fossil fuels are currently a cheap source of energy and so are the methods of producing energy from them. With our present distribution networks‚ we can get fossil fuels of all kinds around the world. That makes it easy to employ them‚ no matter where you are. Thus‚ there is a huge dependence of fossil fuels

Every individual has responsibility to use natural resources judiciously. This will give equal opportunity to all to use the resources for the benefit of mankind. One should not be selfish to spend the available resources without thinking of other fellow beings. There is no limit to spend natural resources if available plenty but at the same time one should realize that natural resources are non-renewable sources. The future also depends on such resources. Every individual should think himself or herself

Natural resource Natural resources (economically referred to as land or raw materials) are naturally forming substances that are considered valuable in their relatively unmodified (natural) form. A natural resource’s value rests in the amount and extractability of the material available and the demand for it. The latter is determined by its usefulness to production. A commodity is generally considered a natural resource when the primary activities associated with it are extraction and purification

ENERGY RESOURCE PLAN Conserving energy is important to our society because it can extend the life time of non-renewable resources. Examples of these are oils‚ coal ‚ and gas. It also minimizes the use of larger more dangerous and environmentally damaging sources ‚such as deep sea oil and tar deposits. Currently the world produces 20 million barrels of oil each year. One-third of that is used by the United Sates. Concidering that only %35 of an oil well can be recoverd one-third is a lot to consume

Natural resources occur naturally within environments that exist relatively undisturbed by humanity‚ in a natural form. A natural resourceis often characterized by amounts of biodiversity and geodiversity existent in various ecosystems. Natural resources are derived from the environment. Some of them are essential for our survival while most are used for satisfying our needs. Natural resources may be further classified in different ways. Natural resources are materials and components (something

Differences between fossil fuel and renewable energy One of the great issues facing world in the 21st century is how best to obtain the energy for supporting operations: heat and light‚ transportation‚ production and delivery of goods and services. Fossil fuel supplies nearly 90 percent of the energy‚ according to the U.S. Department of Energy. In contrast‚ only %5 is provided by renewable energy. There are several differences between fossil fuel and renewable energy. Fossil fuel are including:

Natural resources are all the things on Earth that support life. Plants‚ animals‚ air‚ and water are natural resources. Natural resources are also things that people use to make life easier. Your life is easier because you can ride in a bus powered by gasoline. You can cook your dinner in a microwave oven powered by electricity. People use natural resources to make gasoline and electricity. People use many natural resources to make their lives easier. There are different kinds of natural resources
