Energy Planning Proposal By Brandon Morgan SCI 362 Professor Howard Schmidt September 2‚ 2014 In this time energy is one of the most sought after resources we ask for. It powers just about everything we deal with and use on a daily basis. From the ATM to the charger for your phone. This energy costs money yet should we just throw the money towards the simplest solution at the time‚ or would it be wiser to look towards the long term use of the method of making energy? Renewable energy while it

Energy Alternatives: * Alternative energy is any energy source that is an alternative to fossil fuel. In a general sense in contemporary society‚ alternative energy is that which is produced without the undesirable consequences of the burning of fossil fuels‚ such as high carbon dioxide emissions‚ which is considered to be the major contributing factor of global warming. * This chapter discussed only a few of the possible alternatives to our current combustible energy generation system

Application of Energy ------------------------------------------------- Forms of energy Main article: Forms of energy Energy exists in many forms: Heat‚ a form of energy‚ is partly potential energy and partly kinetic energy. In the context of physical sciences‚ several forms of energy have been defined. These include: * Thermal energy‚ thermal energy in transit is called heat * Chemical energy * Electric energy * Radiant energy‚ the energy of electromagnetic radiation *

The European Union Energy Policy: An Initiative in Progress Anna Rulska April 2006 I. Introduction In January 2006‚ Russia cut off supply of gas to Ukraine. The European Union (EU)‚ dependent on gas from Russia‚ delivered through Ukraine‚ realized the full extent of its vulnerability in the realm of energy security and a need‚ more pressing now than ever‚ for a common energy policy. Shortages of energy carry implications not only for domestic producers and consumers‚ but also for

Renewable Energy The use of renewable energy is probably one of the very few solutions for the energy needs of the future. It is considered as a form of safe‚ clean‚ and non terminating energy. In addition to all of that‚ renewable energy always brings marvelous economic benefits to any industry that uses it. Although renewable energy is expensive‚ time consuming‚ and less reliable sometimes‚ yet it still stands out as the solution for the energy needs of the future with respect to a safer environment
