Globalization: Technology and Development 22 April 2012 Tech Project: A Proposal to a Wind and Solar Energy NGO in Turkey INTRODUCTION Background. For many reasons‚ there has been an influx of demand for renewable energy production. All this demand rises from the initial issue that‚ at the moment‚ the world essentially runs on finite resources.Much of the world’s energy is currently produced and consumed in ways that are unsustainable if current technology and practices were left unchanged

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

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

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
