RENEWABLE ENERGY
Renewable energyis generally defined as energy that
comes from resources which are naturally replenished on
a human timescale.
Renewable energy wind,solar,geothermal,
hydroelectric, andbiomass provides substantial
benefits for our climate, our health, and our economy:
1. Little to No Global Warming Emissions
2.
Improved Public Health and Environmental Quality
3.
A Vast and Inexhaustible Energy Supply
4.
Jobs and Other Economic Benefits
5.
Stable Energy Prices
6.
A More Reliable and Resilient Energy System
SOLAR ENRGY BY-PHOTO VOLTIC CELLS

Solar power cells convert sunlight into electricity,
using the energy of speeding photons to create an
electrical current within a solar panel.
Photons are created in the center of the sun by
the fusion of atoms. It takes a photon about a
million years to work its way to the surface of the
sun, but once free it is hurled through space so
fast that it reaches earth in just eight minutes after traveling 93 million miles.
Solar energy
HYDRO ENERGY
Hydro-powerorwater powerispowerderived
from theenergyof falling water and running
water, which may be harnessed for useful
purposes.
Since ancient times, hydro-power has been used
forirrigationand the operation of various
mechanical devices, such aswatermills,sawmills
,textilemills, dockcranes, domesticlifts, power
houses andpaintmaking.
Hydro energy
WIND ENERGY
Wind poweris the conversion ofwindenergy

into a useful form of energy, such as using
wind turbinesto produceelectrical power,
windmillsfor mechanical power,windpumpsfor
water pumpingordrainage, orsailsto propel
ships.
Wind turbines operate on a simple principle. The
energy in the wind turns two or three propellerlike blades around a rotor. The rotor is connected
to the main shaft, which spins a generator to
create electricity.
Wind energy
GEOTHERMAL ENERGY
Geothermal energyisthermal energy

generated and stored in the Earth. Thermal
energy is the energy that determines the
temperatureof matter.
The geothermal energy of the Earth'scrust
originates from the original formation of the
planet (20%) and fromradioactive decayof
minerals (80%).
Geothermal energy
TIDAL ENERGY
Tidal power, also calledtidal energy, is a form of
hydropowerthat converts the energy oftidesinto
useful forms of power, mainly electricity.
tidal power has potential for future
electricity generation. Tides are more predictable than
wind energyandsolar power.
Tidal power traditionally involves erecting a dam

across the opening to a tidal basin. The dam includes a
sluice that is opened to allow the tide to flow into the
basin; the sluice is then closed, and as the sea level
drops, traditionalhydropowertechnologies can be used
to generate electricity from the elevated water in the
basin.
Tidal energy
USES OF SOLAR ENERGY

The most obvious use of solar energy is to generate
electricity for your home. You can choose a full solar
electrical system and completely remove yourself from
the grid local power company
Solar systems can heat the water in your home to fill
your hot-water tank. These tanks must be wellinsulated to maintain the hot water temperature once
the sun goes down.
More cities are turning to solar-powered road signs to
let you know how fast you're going or to convey
messages of accidents ahead.
Satellites that link us to most mass forms of media
directly or indirectly use the sun's rays to power them.
USES OF GEOTHERMAL ENERGY

one of the uses of geothermal energy
technologies is to allow you in hot times to take
heat from your house, send it down pipes into the
ground , and return it to your house . The
technology typically uses a liquid like antifreeze
as a carrier of that heat, which is moved about in
a closed-loop piping system.
Geothermal heating can help farmers keep
growing, all winter long. geothermal heat is used
to keep fish farms water temperatures warm,
even with glaciersall around.
USES OF TIDAL ENERGY

Like other forms of Energy , the main usage of
Tidal Energy is in the generation of Electricity.
Tidal Energy is being used in France to generate
240 MW of Tidal Electricity at very low costs.
Tidal Energy has been used for hundreds of years .
Just like Wind Mills , Tidal Energy was used for
the mechanical crushing of grains in Grain Mills .
The movement of Turbines due to Tidal Energy
was used in the crush Grains.
Tidal Barrages can prevent Damage to the Coast
during High Storms and also provide an easy
transport method between the 2 arms of a Bay or
an Estuary on which it is built.
USES OF HYDRO POWER

Hydroelectric energy is electricity and is put on
the national grid for use bythe public.
it is used for pretty much every modern process
of anything, in someway or another.
USES OF WIND ENERGY

it has been to travel the world

INNOVATIVE IDEAS FOR ENERGY

PRODUCTION: A COMPUTER-CONTROLLED
KITE STRUCTURE FLOATING AROUND
2000FT FOR GENERATING POWER
Joby Energy Inc., exploring wind turbine
technology, has developed a computer-controlled
multi-winged kite-like structure which floats
around 2000ft height for generating power. Mr
Bevirt is the inventor of this aerial kite. The DC
power generated is transferred to ground through
tether to a ground station to be converted to AC
power ready for consumption via a power grid.
Mr. Bevirt said, Operating at five times the
height of a conventional turbine increases both
wind speed and consistency resulting in more
power, more often.
INNOVATIVE IDEAS FOR ENERGY

PRODUCTION:ENGINNERS TAP ALGAE FOR
ELECTRICITY
With the help of photosynthesis plants convert light energy
to chemical energy. This chemical energy is stored in the
bonds of sugars they use for food. Photosynthesis happens
inside a chloroplast. Chloroplasts are considered as the
cellular powerhouses that make sugars and impart leaves
and algae a green hue. During photosynthesis water is split
into oxygen, protons and electrons. When sunrays fall on the
leaves and reach the chloroplast, electrons get excited and
attain higher energy level. These excited electrons are
caught by proteins. The electrons are passed through a
series of proteins.
They intercepted the electrons just after they had been
excited by light and were at their highest energy levels. They
put the gold electrodes inside the chloroplasts of algae cells,
and tapped the electrons to create a tiny electrical current.
