GREEN ENERGY

INTRODUCTION
Green energy is energy that is
produced in such a way as to minimize its
negative impact on the environment .
Traditional energy sources , most notably
fossil fuels , produce greenhouse gases that
are believed to be the primary cause of an
effect known as global warming or climate
change. Sources of green energy , such as
solar , wind , geothermal , and hydro energy
, are developed and promoted as

alternative sources that make little


or no contribution to climate
change .Even nuclear energy is
sometimes considered a green
energy source , because some types
of nuclear technology produce much
less waste than oil and coal . In this
regard green energy can be called as
renewable resources of energy .

Renewable
energyis
generally
defined as energy that is collected
from resources which are naturally
replenished on a human timescale,
such assun light , wind ,rain , tides ,
waves
andgeothermal
heat
Renewable energy often provides
energy
in
four
important
areas:electricity generation, air and
water
heating/cooling
,
transportation,
andruralenergy
services.

Renewable energy resources exist


over wide geographical areas, in
contrast to other energy sources,
which are concentrated in a limited
number
of
countries.
Rapid
deployment of renewable energy and

in significantenergy ,climate change
, and economic benefits

SIGNIFICANCE OF USING GREEN


ENERGY
The industrial revolution that began in the second
half of the eighteenth century changed the world,
with new methods of machine based manufacturing
leading to a profound increase in economic growth,
population growth and quality of life. However the
burning of vast quantities of fossil fuels such as coal
and oil, has caused a great deal of harm to the
environment. Most climatologists agree that the use
of fossil fuels has contributed significantly to global
warming. This term refers to the measured increase
in the Earths surface temperature . In this regard it
is necessary to discuss about Green Energy.

SOURCES OF GREEN ENERGY

WIND POWER
Wind is used to generate energy with large
turbines connected to a power collection ,
storage , and distribution system.This types of
energy generation is a highly effective
method of providing electricity to small ,
isolated communities.
The wind has huge amounts
ofkineticenergy, and this can be
transferred into electrical energy usingwind
turbines. The wind turns the blades, which
spin a shaft, which connects to a generator
and makes electricity

Wind turbines are usually


sited on high hills and
mountain ridges to take
advantage of the prevailing
winds.
Just like a windmill, wind
energy turbines have been
around for over 1000 years.
From old Holland to farms in
the United States, windmills
have been used for pumping
water or grinding grain.

HYDRO ENERGY

Hydro energy uses the movement of


water to power turbines attached to
generators , and in many countries , it
provides a larger proportion of energy
than any other green
resource.Hydropower doesn't produce a
significant amount of waste and
provides a unique environmental
advantage. The presence of a large
water supply can also provide valuable
support for agricultural regions.

SOLAR POWER

Solar power does not produce any


emissions , is renewable , and is highly
suitable for powering portable devices as
well as how's.Many new homes take
solar energy generation into
consideration as a design concept ,with
solar panels and water heating systems.
When it comes to larger sale energy
production , the main disadvantage of
solar technology is that solar panels and
energy storage devices use a significant
amount of land

Some types of nuclear energy


are categorized as green
because they produce very
small amounts of waste.A
green nuclear reactor can burn
its own nuclear waste to
produce energy , relying on a
process called nuclear
transmutation.In this processes
, the waste is converted into
progressively lower energy
forms.Scientists believe that
this form of energy production
is so efficient .

GEOTHERMAL ENERGY

Geothermal energy is
generated by earth
underneath its surface in
the form of heat.produces
only a small of waste
compared to fossil fuels.

BIOMASS

Biomass is organic matter derived


from living or recently living
organism.

GOAL
The priary goal of developing green
sources of energy is to generate
power while minimizing both waste
and pollution, to there by reduce the
impact of energy production on the
environment

CLEAN COAL TECHNOLOGY


Clean coal technology attempts to
reduce emissions from burning coal.It
convert coal into a gas , and then
generate energy by burning gas.It is
cleaner than traditional methods.
