Solid biomass with high carbon content such as dried manure can be burnt after moisture removal to heat water for any processing and to drive gas turbines to generate electricity. Biomass energy has potential to contribute 45%–55% of total global energy requirements.
Hydropower is one of the oldest and largest sources of renewable energy, which uses the natural flow of moving water to generate electricity.
Wind power or wind energy is mostly the use of wind turbines to generate electricity. Wind power is a popular, sustainable, renewable energy source that has a much smaller impact on the environment than burning fossil fuels.
Wind power generation refers to the process of conversion of wind energy (kinetic energy) to electrical or mechanical energy in wind turbines. The energy generated depends on the size of the wind turbines.
Solar technologies convert sunlight into electrical energy either through photovoltaic (PV) panels or through mirrors that concentrate solar radiation. This energy can be used to generate electricity or be stored in batteries or thermal storage.
