RENEWABLE ENERGY
COUNTRIES ENJOYING RENEWABLE ENERGY
Norway with 99% renewable energy used
New Zealand with 80.9% of their energy coming from renewable energy
Brazil with 78.4% of their energy coming from renewables
Columbia with 74.5% of their energy being renewable
Canada with 68% of their energy being renewable
DISADVANTAGES OF RENEWABLE ENERGY
Wind Energy can be quite loud and a disruption to people nearby
Hydro Power can be quite detrimental to the ground around it.
Generally more expensive than non-renewable energy sources.
need more space and cost more to create facilities for a subsequent amount of renewable energy. (generally)
ADVANTAGES OF RENEWABLE ENERGY
Solar Energy
Job Creation (Manufacturing, Installation, and Maintenance)
Energy Access (Solar energy can be used in practically any place with some space.
Energy Security (Solar energy is a consistent energy source that can be used for a very long time reliably.
Slows Climate Change (By replacing the use of fossil fuels, the rate of climate change is reduced significantly
Reduces Air Pollution (If solar energy is utilized fossil fuel usage is reduced)
Wind Energy
Job Creation (Manufacturing, Maintenance)
Reduces Climate Change (By replacing fossil fuels)
Reduces Air pollution (by replacing emission creating energy sources)
Affordable (Wind energy is becoming much cheaper recently which has made it quite realistic to use.
Energy security (As wind is something that can be utilized over and over.
Hydro power
Has other benefits than just electricity with flood control, irrigation support, and clean drinking water being some of them
Job Creation (Manufacturing and Maintenance
Reduces climate change and air pollution by replacing fossil fuels and emission creating energy sources
Energy security for future as Water power could theoretically be utilized infinitely
FACTORS ACCOUNTING FOR COUNTRIES DEPLOYING OF RENEWABLE ENERGY
Countries having larger populations is detrimental to renewable energies as mass energy production is more difficult than the use of fossil fuels.
Renewable energy generally costs more to use than fossil fuels which means that they don't make sense to use for people who are struggling with money
Renewable energy costs a lot of space and money to manufacture and install which means that the renewable source option is not very realistic for some poorer countries.
