MAYOR TYPES OF RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCES
SOLAR ENERGY
used for
Heating Water+Air
through solar-thermal pannels
converting sun light directly to eletricity
PHOTOVOLTAIC CELLS
device converts the energy of light into electricity
by the photovoltaic effect
WIND POWER
Wind turbines (their long baldes or rotors)
catch wind, spin
through generator transform the movement into electrical energy
GEOTHERMAL POWER
uses natural source of heat (inside the earth)
to produce Heating or Electricity
HYDROPOWER
run-of-the river hydroelectricity works
taking kinetic energy from rivers without the use of dam
BIOMASSES
including
wood-crops
residues from agricolture/forestry
organic component of industrial
converting energy in several methods
Burning
Alcohol Fermentation (producing gasohol)
Pyrolysis (chimical decomposition of compounds)
Anaerobic Digestion (producing methane)
