Renewable energy that has no end

Wind energy - water power - solar energy

 

Alternative Energy

Include renewable energy

As well as bio-fuel and nuclear energy

 

Alternative to oil and coal energy

Alternative energy is a source of energy which contain frequency and change its direction periodically .This types of energy  produced according to the Faraday law of electromagnetic induction .on the other hand renewable energy generate by the use of natural energy it can ve ac or dc.

Renewable energy comes from a source that is naturally occurring and replenishes after use.

Alternative energy comes from non-renewable resources, but produces fewer emissions than conventional energy.

Renewable energy comes from a source that is naturally occurring and replenishes after use. Sources of renewable energy include:

  • wind
  • solar
  • hydro
  • geothermal
  • biomass

Alternative energy comes from non-renewable resources, but produces fewer emissions than conventional energy.Sources of alternative energy include:

  • natural gas cogeneration
  • fuel cells
  • use of waste energy
  • electricity and natural gas used for transportation

Energy used from these resources fall into three categories:

 

  1. electricity generation
    • examples include wind, solar, hydro, bioenergy and geothermal
  2. heat production
    • examples include energy storage, geothermal, heat pumps and solar
  3. transportation fuels
    • examples include bioenergy and alternate transportation fuels

Alternative EnergyWhen we speak of alternative energy, we refer to sources of usable energy that can replace conventional energy sources (usually, without undesirable side effects). The term "alternative energy" is typically used to refer to sources of energy other than nuclear energy or fossil fuels.Throughout the course of history, "alternative energy" has referred to different things. There was a time when Nuclear Energy was considered an alternative to conventional energy, and was thus called "alternative energy." But times have changed.These days, a form of "alternative energy" might also be renewable energy, or clean energy, or both. The terms are often interchangeable, but definitely not the same.

 

Renewable EnergyRenewable energy is any type of energy which comes from renewable natural resources, such as wind, rain, sunlight, geothermal heat, and tides. It is referred to as "renewable" because it doesn't run out. You can always get more of it.People have begun to turn to this type of energy due to the rising oil prices, and the prospect that we might one day deplete available sources of fossil fuels, as well as due to concerns about the adverse effects that our conventional energy sources have on the environment.Among the different types of renewable energy, wind power is one which is growing in its use. The number of users who have some form of wind power installed has increased, with the current worldwide capacity being about100 GW.

Alternative energy is a term used for an energy source that is an alternative to using fossil fuels. Generally, it indicates energies that are non-traditional and have low environmental impact. The term alternative is used to contrast with fossil fuels according to some sources. By most definitions alternative energy doesn't harm the environment, a distinction which separates it from renewable energy which may or may not have significant environmental impact.

Renewable energy is energy that is generated from natural processes that are continuously replenished. This includes sunlight, geothermal heat, wind, tides, water, and various forms of biomass. This energy cannot be exhausted and is constantly renewed.
