What Is Green Power And How It Can Be Used
Green power represents those renewable energy resources and technologies that are environment friendly and provide maximum environmental benefits.
Electrical energy derived from wind, solar, geothermal, biogas, biomass and small hydroelectric turbines are termed as green power due to their low greenhouse emissions.
Renewable energy technologies reduce dependence on fossil fuel resources thus also minimizing green gases emissions.
Onset of industrial revolution in the late 19th.
century saw the emergence of first generation green power technologies in the form of hydroelectricity, biomass combustion, geothermal heat and geothermal power.
Solar heating, wind power, bio-energy and solar photovoltaic are second generation power technologies that surfaced in the market in the 1970's.
Currently third generation technologies are in different stages of usage, research and development and.
These are bio-refinery, biomass gasification, solar thermal power, hot dry rock geothermal energy, ocean energy.
Nanotechnology may also giving signals of playing a major role in the development of green power for the future.
Nuclear fission, which for the time being has several safety hazards, may also prove to be environment friendly after suitable technology is developed to harness it and political mindset is enlightened.
Green power must also have to be energy efficient in order to become market friendly.
Green power and energy efficiency are the two legs of the sustainable energy and hence sustainable environment.
Energy efficient machines, equipments, and processes have less green house emissions and make deep cuts in fossil fuel demand.
Business owners and entrepreneurs have understood this aspect of power.
They have a very healthy environment management regimen which takes care of any undue wastage and takes extra care in course corrections of deviations, if any.
Electricity produced by green resources and green technologies have found only 2 to 5% entry into the consumer market.
In some US states, such as San Francisco, regional power purchasing pool using Community Choice Aggregation and Solar Bonds have been formed to achieve a 51% renewable mix.
Consumers are encouraged to participate in such program in order to be a part of green energy development program.
The cost of purchasing such green power mix may be slightly higher, but that is the least contribution that the determination to achieve a sustainable environment demands from conscious population of the world.
Just imagine the energy utilization concept of the future when electricity generated from the solar energy captured on the surface of the moon would be beamed in the form of microwaves directly to a pinpointed location on the earth.
