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

Cape Wind Environmental Science The purpose of this research paper is to identify the environmental impact of the purposed offshore wind farm going in the Nantucket Sound located in Massachusetts. Key environmental issues will be discussed based on the effects of other wind farms from around the world. Government officials‚ organizations‚ and people who oppose the wind farm will also be discussed or how these people are trying to prevent this wind farm from being constructed. Technology

Geothermal Power [pic][pic][pic][pic][pic]The ground beneath our feet contains a significant amount of energy in the form of heat. All of this geothermal energy has the potential to generate geothermal power to provide large amounts of electricity. People have used geothermal energy in the form of hot springs for centuries‚ however‚ the first attempt to generate electricity from this energy source did not occur until the 20th century. The production of electricity from geothermal energy sources

3.7 Wind Generators: There are three main parts in horizontal axis wind turbines: (1) a rotor‚ (2) an alternator‚ and (3) a tail. The rotor blades are attached to a central hub covered by a nose cone that improves aerodynamics. Three blades are generally present in upwind generators. This entire assembly rotates when wind blows past the blades‚ hence the name “rotor.” In many small wind turbines the rotor is coupled to a shaft which is coupled to an alternator‚ a device that produces AC electricity

future‚ renewable energy like solar‚ wind‚ wave and tidal could be utilized in some areas of Bangladesh. The geographical location of Bangladesh is ideal for tapping solar energy effectively. There is also enormous potential for harnessing electrical power from wind in some selected areas of the country and in the coastal region. In this paper possibility of wind-solar hybrid system has been studied. There is a possibility of a total of 100 MW hybrid power generation in coastal areas. After
