Renewable Energy

  HYDROELECTRIC POWER Hydroelectric energy takes advantage of the energy produced by the movement of water when it rises or falls steeply. It can be generated from reservoirs and rivers. BIOENERGY Bioenergy is produced from various organic materials, called biomass, such as wood, coal, manure and other fertilizers used for the production of heat and electricity, and agricultural crops used for liquid biofuels.

  WIND ENERGY Wind energy takes advantage of the kinetic energy of moving air through the use of huge wind turbines located on land surfaces, in the high seas or in fresh waters (on the water surface). GEOTHERMAL ENERGY Geothermal energy uses the thermal energy available from the Earth's interior. Heat is extracted from geothermal deposits through wells or other means.

 How much contamination does this produce? Renewable energy generation produces far fewer emissions than burning fossil fuels. A transition from fossil fuels, which currently account for the majority of emissions, to renewable energy is essential to address the crisis caused by climate change.

Renewable energies are a type of energy derived from natural sources that can be replaced faster than they can be consumed. An example of these sources are, for example, sunlight and wind; These sources are continually renewed. Renewable energy sources abound and we find them in any environment.
