When we have a discussion about renewable energy we are referring to power that delivers energy from resources that will not be depleted because of our use of them. For reasons other than the factor of non-depletion, renewable energy is an alternative to non-renewable fossil fuel energy.
One basic benefit of renewable energy, and the cause environmentalists all over the globe are advocate its utilization, is that it does give off green house gases and other dangerous pollutants as do the by-products of burning fossil fuel for energy. Renewable energy such as solar power, water power and wind power, while the widespread discussion of which is new, are anything but new.
In both newly developing and highly developed countries wind, sun and water have long been used as power sources, though not to the extent of providing the primary energy source for large metropolitan communities.
The majority production of such renewable energy is become commonplace in recent years as more and more people come to become aware of how climate is changing due to the pollution of fossil fuel gases, due to the exhaustion of the availability of these fossil fuels and the political and social issues of energy sources such as nuclear power.
Many countries and non-profit environmentally-conscious organizations are encouraging the use of renewable energy sources by passing legislation on tax incentives for their use and subsidies to offset the added expense of converting from fossil fuel to renewable energy.
Phenomena that occur naturally in our world, the flow of renewable energy involves in it. Tides, sunlight, wind and heat derived by geothermal occurrences all provide renewable energy. Each of these energy sources is unique both in where we can use them and how.
Most technology that converts renewable energy into power sources we can use are powered at least in part by the Sun if not straight away at least indirectly. The earth's atmospheric system stays in such balance that the heat that it gives off radiates into space to an amount match to the radiation that comes to earth from the sun.
The result of this energy level within the atmosphere is roughly translated to the climate of the earth. The water of the earth, also referred to its hydrosphere, absorbs a lot of the radiation that comes to us from the sun.
