Renewable EnergyWhat Is Renewable Energy?It is energy which comes from natural resources, that are naturally replenished.Types of sourcesSunlightWind TidesGeothermal heat

Why Renewable Energy?Contrast Between Energy SourcesConventional RenewableGreen House gases (GHG)Minimum/least/no GHGDepletion of sourcesEndless SourcesThreat to environmentEnvironment friendlyExpensiveCheaperTypes of Renewable EnergySolar EnergyDerived from sun through solar radiationsGeneration of electric power through solar panelsApplicationsSolar lighteningSolar thermalAgricultureSolar vehicles

De-merits Of Solar EnergyHigher initial/capital cost (equipment)Pollution effects efficiencyNo light at night or during cloudy weatherYetMinimum operational cost

Wind EnergyConversion of wind into electrical energyRequires much less spaceEasy to generate in remote areasEnvironment friendlyDe-meritsUnreliable wind speedHigher capital cost YetNo by-products in terms of GHGandVery cheap operational cost

Hydel EnergyElectricity production by using gravitational force of falling or flowing waterResponds quickly to fluctuations in demandGreat and precious source of irrigation waterSupports fisheriesDe-meritsHigher initial cost Longer construction time Large relocation of peopleYetOffers large scale power at very cheap operational cost

BiomassBiological material from living organisms such as wood, waste and plant matterBiomass is burnt to produce heat which is further utilized to make steam for generating electricityDe-meritsCost to collect, harvest & storeGHG emissionsRequires waste recycling

Geo Thermal EnergyThermal energy naturally generated & stored in the earthA natural source of heat for steam generationNo fuel required De-meritsHot spot within the earth crust usually found near volcanoesHarmful gases omissionYetVery cheap electricity

Focusing on Solar EnergySolar Energy1,330 watts per square meter of solar energy gifted by Allah Almighty10,000 times more than all commercial energy.Remote electricity generation Safe payback of investment

SOLARAverage amount of solar energy arriving on top of the atmosphere is 1,330 watts per square meter.Amount reaching the earths surface is 10,000 times more than all commercial energy used annually.Until recently, this energy source has been too diffuse and low intensity to capitalize for electricity.-If you are far away from existing grid lines, generating your own electricity will help you avoid the high costs of having utility power lines brought in.

17Why Solar Energy?Readily available source

It is almost free except for initial cost

A non-polluting source of energy

Solar energy is the most readily available source of energy. It is free. It is also the most important of the non-conventional sources of energy because it is non-polluting18Solar Energy - Some Facts

Earth receives 1.2x1017 W of power from sun.Energy supplied by the sun in one hour is almost equal to the amount energy required by the human population in one year.Most if the other source on renewable energy have their in sun.

19Limitations of Solar EnergySun does not shine consistentlySolar energy is a diffuse sourceLocation and cost are major drawback

Sun does not shine consistently.Solar energy is a diffuse source. To harness it, we must concentrate it into an amount and form that we can use, such as heat and electricity. Addressed by approaching the problem through: 1) collection, 2) conversion, 3) storage.

20Photo Voltaic Cells A mechanism of generating electrical power from solar radiationFirst developed at Bell Laboratories,19541958 - $2,000 / watt1970 - $100 / watt2002 - $5 / watt2009 - $1 / watt

During the past 25 years, efficiency of energy capture by photovoltaic cells has increased from less than 1% of incident light to more than 10% in field conditions.

21Storage of Solar PowerStorage is difficult and expensiveLead-acid batteries Heavy and have low energy densityNickel-metal hydride batteriesHigher capacity & discharge rateUsed in hybrid carsLithium-ion batteriesSmaller, lighter, and more versatileExpensive

Electrical energy storage is difficult and expensive.Lead-Acid batteries Heavy and have low energy density.Typical lead-acid battery sufficient to store electricity for an average home would cost $5,000 and weigh 3-4 tons.Nickel-Metal Hydride batteriesHigher capacity than lead, high discharge rateUsed in hybrid carsLithium-Ion batteriesSmaller, lighter, and more versatileExpensive22CHARGE CONTROLLERBATTERIESDC LOADSINVERTERAC LOADSSOLAR CELLSSolar Energy Simplified ModelBLOACK DIAGRAM23Electricity Import and Export

Focusing On Wind EnergyEach blessing comes with a price tag; bearing certain added responsibilities followed by accountability.Power of WindWind has ability to produce sufficient mechanical movementNo GHG effectMinimum production costSteady but significantLesser field area requirementGrowing efficient day by day

Many thanks for joining a little thinking and learning effortWinners dont do different things,They do things differently.

Highly thankful for your active participation, masha Allah44Tidal Energy Utilization

Run of the River Small or no reservoir capacityNo reservoir means no construction cost of damNo need to relocate peopleHowever, power plant is subjected to seasonal river flows

Tidal Energy UtilizationUtilizes the daily rise and fall of ocean water due to tides.Tidal energy is quite predictable Longer life of tidal barrages (around 100 years)High energy density

48High Temperature Solar EnergySmall mirrors arranged in concentric rings. Light focuses on a heat absorber on top of the tower.

Small mirrors arranged in concentric rings around a tall central tower track the sun and focus light on a heat absorber on top of the tower.
