WHAT IS GREEN ENERGY?

Green energy is any energy type that is generated from natural resources, such as sunlight, wind or water. It often comes from renewable energy sources although there are some differences between renewable and green energy, which we will explore, below. 


The key with these energy resources are that they don’t harm the environment through factors such as releasing greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. 


As a source of energy, green energy often comes from renewable energy technologies such as solar energy, wind power, geothermal energy, biomass and hydroelectric power. Each of these technologies works in different ways, whether that is by taking power from the sun, as with solar panels, or using wind turbines or the flow of water to generate energy. 


In order to be deemed green energy, a resource cannot produce pollution, such as is found with fossil fuels. This means that not all sources used by the renewable energy industry are green. For example, power generation that burns organic material from sustainable forests may be renewable, but it is not necessarily green, due to the CO2 produced by the burning process itself. Green energy sources are usually naturally replenished, as opposed to fossil fuel sources like natural gas or coal, which can take millions of years to develop. Green sources also often avoid mining or drilling operations that can be damaging to eco-systems.

WHAT ARE WE OFFERING?

SOLAR PHOTOVOLTAIC POWER PLANTS

Photovoltaics is one of the most modern sources of electricity. The system is deemed as green because it provides a sustainable supply of electricity and does not put a burden on the environment. A photovoltaic power plant contains solar cells that convert solar energy into electricity.

WIND TURBINES

A wind farm is a collection of wind turbines, usually of the same type, used to generate electricity. Wind farms consist of a small or large number of turbines that convert the wind’s energy first into kinetic energy and then, with the help of generators, into electricity. 

HYDROELECTRIC POWER PLANTS

Water energy, or hydropower, is the energy of flowing waters, which is the result of the movement of the natural water cycle. Hydroelectric power is converted into electricity in hydroelectric power stations. With the exception of old mills, which are powered by the weight of water, modern hydropower plants harness the kinetic energy of water as it falls.
