m á áRGY:Is a quantity that is often understood as
the ability to perform work.

m ALTáR ATIVá á áRGY: refers to any source of

usable energy intended to replace fuel sources
without the undesired consequences of the
replaced fuels.

Solar ánergy:

 is the conversion of
sunlight into electricity, either directly
using photovoltaics (PV), or indirectly
using concentrated solar power(CSP).
m ÷   


 (CSP) systems use
lenses or mirrors to focus a large area of sunlight
onto a small area. álectrical power is produced
when the concentrated light is directed
onto photovoltaic surfaces or used to heat
a transfer fluid for a conventional power plant.
m è (PV) is a method of generating
electrical power by converting solar
radiation into direct current electricity
using semiconductors that exhibit the photovoltaic
effect. Photovoltaic power generation
employs solar panels comprising a number of cells
containing a photovoltaic material. Materials
presently used for photovoltaics include silicon
etc.

m Wind ánergy:Wind energy is defined as the
³power generated by harnessing the wind, usually
by windmills´. In scientific terms, wind energy is
the "force" of winds blowing across the earth¶s
surface. Wind energy is usually associated with
wind turbines/windmills

m ydroelectric energy is the electric power
generated by using the kinetic energy of flowing
water. ydroelectric power stations employ huge
water turbines to drive electric generators.

m Tidal/Ocean energy involves the process in

which, the regular rise and fall of the water level in
the earth's oceans, is capable of producing
energy. The rise and the fall is a result of the
gravitational forces between the earth, moon, and
sun
m Biomass energy is the energy obtained from the
methane gas generated by sewage or
farm, industrial, and household organic
waste, from specially cultivated organisms and
trees.
m Geothermal energy is the heat stored inside the
earth and the energy is derived from the transfer
of heat from the core to the surface of the áarth.
Geothermal energy is relatively economic, but not
readily available or obtainable.

m ydrogen is the lightest and the most plentiful of all
gases. ydrogen is not freely available but it is found
in compound forms such as in water (O).
m ydrogen is a powerful energy carrier which has been
used variously in the past for industrial activities and
as fuel for automobiles. It is a clean-burning fuel and is
therefore considered environmentally friendly.
m ree hydrogen does not occur naturally in
quantity, and thus it must be generated from some
other energy source by steam reformation of natural
gas or another method. ydrogen is therefore
an energy carrier (like electricity), not a primary
energy source (like coal)
m Clean and efficient use of energy without polluting
the environment and the future of the world's
environment, a positive impact on future
generations is a fact of life.ence,instead of using
non- renewable energy sources ,alternative
energy sources should be utilized by all countries.
