Renewable Energy

Renewable energy is energy derived from natural sources that are replenished at
a higher rate than they are consumed. Sunlight and wind, for example.

A non-renewable resource (also called a finite resource) is a natural resource that

cannot be readily replaced by natural means at a pace quick enough to keep up with
consumption. An example is carbon-based fossil fuels.

Why Renewable Energy
01 Renewable energy sources are all around us

02 Renewable energy is healthier

03 Diversifying energy supply and reducing

dependence on imported fuels

04 Creating economic development and jobs in

manufacturing, installation, and more
05 Renewable energy is cheaper

Solar energy
Solar energy is a renewable energy source in which it can generate clean and sustainable electricity
without producing planet-warming greenhouse gas emission or toxic pollution in the process.

Facts
• Solar is the Most Abundant Energy Source on Earth
• Solar is the Fastest and Most Popular Form of New Electricity Generation
• Minimal Greenhouse Gas Emissions are Generated in a Solar Life Cycle
• Solar PV Accounts for 3% of Global Electricity Generation
• Solar Power Plants Can Last 40 Years or More
• Solar Power Plants Does Have Some Environmental Impacts
• Solar Will Become 35% Cheaper By 2024
• Solar Power in 2020 was the Cheapest Electricity in History
• The Biggest Solar Farm in the World is in Morocco

Wind Energy
electrical energy obtained from harnessing the wind with windmills or wind turbines.

Facts
• Global Onshore Wind Electricity Generation Increased by 11% in 2020

• Offshore Wind Can Generate More Electricity with Less Turbines

• Offshore Wind Could Potentially Generate 18 Times the Current Global

Electricity Demand

• China Is By Far The Biggest Producer of Wind Energy

• Wind Energy Sector Will Employ 4 Million People by 2030

Facts
Hydropower
• Hydropower is one of the oldest
Hydropower, or
power sources on the planet.
hydroelectric power, is
one of the oldest and
largest sources of • The single largest
renewable energy, renewable energy source
which uses the natural
flow of moving water to
generate electricity. • Norway produces more than
99% of its electricity with
hydropower

Fuel Cell(Hydrogen Fuel Cell)
A fuel cell uses the chemical energy of hydrogen or other fuels to cleanly and efficiently
produce electricity.

Facts

• Hydrogen is the simplest and

most abundant element in the
universe

• Hydrogen fuel cell vehicles

• Efficiency 60-65%

• Fuel cell cost has decreased by

60% since 2006

Pros and Cons of Hydrogen Fuel Cell
Advantages
High Efficiency- when utilizing co-
generation, fuel cells can attain over 80%
energy efficiency
Good reliability- quality of power provided
does not degrade over time.
Noise- offers a much more silent and
smooth alternative to conventional energy
production.
Environmentally beneficial
Size reduction
12
Disadvantages
Expensive to manufacture due the high cost
of catalysts (platinum)
Lack of infrastructure to support the
distribution of hydrogen
A lot of the currently available fuel cell
technology is in the prototype stage and not
yet validated.
Hydrogen is expensive to produce and not
widely available
 13
Cons of Renewable Energy
01 The Electricity Generation Capacity is Still Not
Large Enough
02 Renewable Energy Can be
Unreliable

03 Low-efficiency Levels

04 Requires a Huge Upfront Capital Outlay

05 Takes a Lot of Space to Install
06 Expensive Storage Costs
