Since Bangladesh is a country which is abundant in natural resources; the substantial availability of renewable energy sources in the form of solar‚ biomass‚ biogas‚ hydropower and wind energy can provide opportunities of sustainable energy based development. In Bangladesh‚ nearly 72% of the population lives in rural areas and renewable energy is considered to be the right choice for providing clean energy to these remote settlements

Conserving Energy to Save Money According to an article and graph published in The New York Times‚ “About 56 percent of all the energy that is produced in the United States is wasted” (Revkin). With all that energy being wasted‚ Americans cannot afford to waste much more. There are a number of things a homeowner can do around and to their household to conserve energy and save money at the same time. They can turn off unneeded electricity and try other sources‚ such as renewable energy to conserve

All solar lights are “wireless”. They are not “hooked up” to external sources of power. Solar lights produce no pollution and cause no harmful environmental effects. Once installed‚ energy is free Fourteen solar farms have a combined installed capacity of 388.4 megawatts and in 2011 generated 0.1 billion kilowatt-hours. (Source: Canadian Centre for Energy Information compilation‚ 2013) There are now 3‚133 megawatts of solar power installed in the U.S. That’s enough to power nearly 3 million homes

contribution to human energy needs is substantial — worldwide‚ solar electricity generation is a growing‚ multibillion dollar industry. But solar’s share of the total energy market remains rather small‚ well below 1 percent of total energy consumption‚ compared with roughly 85 percent from oil‚ natural gas‚ and coal. Those fossil fuels cannot remain the dominant sources of energy forever. Whatever the precise timetable for their depletion‚ oil and gas supplies will not keep up with growing energy demands. Coal

____________________________________________ Solar Energy System Design The largest solar electric generating plant in the world produces a maximum of 354 megawatts (MW) of electricity and is located at Kramer Junction‚ California. This solar energy generating facility‚ shown below‚ produces electricity for the Southern California Edison power grid supplying the greater Los Angeles area. The authors ’ goal is to provide the necessary information to design such systems. The solar collectors concentrate sunlight

THE SOLAR SYSTEM T The Solar System consists of the Sun and the astronomical objects gravitationally bound in orbit around it‚ all of which formed from the collapse of a giant molecular cloud approximately 4.6 billion years ago. The vast majority of the system’s mass (well over 99%) is in the Sun. Of the many objects that orbit the Sun‚ most of the mass is contained within eight relatively solitary planets whose orbits are almost circular and lie within a nearly flat disc called the ecliptic

Electricity generated by burning fossil fuels such as coal‚ oil and natural gas‚ emits carbon dioxide‚ nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides -- gases scientists believe contribute to climate change. Solar thermal (heat) energy is a carbon-free‚ renewable alternative to the power we generate with fossil fuels like coal and gas. This isn’t a thing of the future‚ either. Between 1984 and 1991‚ the United States built nine such plants in California’s Mojave Desert
