Presentation title 5
 Solution
As we know that solar panels need sunlight. It’s
efficiency drops during night, rainy and cloudy days.
But thermodynamic panels or solar thermal panels
are the alternative for it. With thermodynamic
panels you have much more freedom. They absorb
heat from the air so don't need to be in direct
sunlight or even on the roof. Plus, they'll continue
to keep the cylinder warm into the evening and
through the night

 Wind energy
Energy generated from wind, which is used to generate mechanical power or electricity
 Advantages of wind energy

Renewable energy source Environmental friendly Low Operating cost

It is accessible as long as It does not creates It is not associated with fuel
there is flow of wind. It is pollution costs.

 Solution
We should build wind turbines where there is too much
of wind like near sea so there will be 24 hours electricity
and the problem of electricity will be solved and there
are less birds near sea so the problem of killing birds
will also be solved.

India is generating its most of energy using fossil fuels specially
coal. There are lot of renewable and sustainable energy sources,
to which we can switch if we overcome their limitations.
