Wind Turbines and Blades

Conversion of wind energy into a useful form such as electricity is referred to as wind power.

This energy is directly used in wind mills to crush grains or to pump water. Towards the end of the year 2007, about 94.1 gigawatts was the standard capacity of wind powered generators, across the globe. This measures about 19 percent of total production of electricity in Denmark, 6 percent in Portugal and Spain. The generation of wind power increased more than five fold between the period of 2000 and 2007, all across the globe.

Solar Power Components

This energy is obtained directly from the sun. Solar energy is known to drive the weather and climate all year round. It also supports life on earth.

Most of the renewable energy flow is contributed by heat and light coming from the sun in conjunction with wind, hydroelectricity, wave power and biomass.

All technologies related to the solar energy tend to utilize the energy of sun for practical ends. These technologies are as old as the time period belonging to the early Greeks, Chinese and Native Americans

Bio-Mass Technology

Any living or recently dead biological material that can be utilized as full or for various industrial production purposes can be referred to as Biomass.

Biomass is most commonly known as plant matter grown for use as biofuel. However, it also includes plant or animal matter exploited for fibre, heat or chemical production.

Biodegradable wastes that can be burnt as fuel is also categorized under Biomass. It tends to exclude all organic matter that has been transformed by various geological processes into various substances such as petroleum or coal.
