are two primary methods for generating electricity from water. One method uses the energy potential of trapped water in dams in a more sophisticated version of the water wheel‚ and the other method of generating electricity is to capture energy from ocean waves. Electricity generated from water is entirely renewable‚ sinccete water is an abundant natural resource First method:When a dam is used to generate energy‚ tunnels are installed in the dam when it is built. These tunnels are lined with turbines

Government Subsidies for Solar Panels Substitutes can help reduce the price of economic costs of some necessary utilities. Solar energy is a substitute and also an opportunity cost for the energy we use now‚ called fossil fuels. There are many benefits to switching from fossil fuels to solar energy. Solar energy can help lower the cost of the energy we use now by burning fossil fuels‚ changing the supply and demand of the product. Also‚ it can help the pollution that is causing further health

Global Business Operations Solar Panel Industry Student Name: Student Number: Introduction The solar panel industry is a niche market dominated by a small number of large firms. Five out of the top ten biggest players in the industry are Chinese firms. Solar panels capture sunlight and convert it into electricity‚ in one of two forms; photovoltaics OR concentrated solar power. The industry itself is a volume based industry

(RENEWABLE ENERGY) IN PAKISTAN By The wind of change is blown and world has now emphasizing towards new technologies out of which renewable energy is important one. Keeping in view the commercial and industrial consumption of oil and gas everyone is conscious to have some alternate resource for energy production. Wind is also one of the resources for the power generation. A wind turbine is a device that converts kinetic energy from the wind‚ also called wind energy‚ into mechanical energy; a process

renewable energy? Well‚ because its renewable. Renewable energy will last forever and it cost close to nothing to get it. But it will always be their‚ unlike coal that once its gone‚ its gone. I think that the best process to get renewable energy is through geothermal plants. Some scientists think that the amount of geothermal energy stored in the earth will outlast our energy consumption and it may even outlast the sun. (Energy Informative) Geothermal is the most cost effective way to get energy‚ with
