ALTERNATIVE ENERGY - HYDORELECTRIC DAMS – THE FACTS – PART 9

Categories: Renewable Energy

Hydroelectric

[ad] HYDORELECTRIC DAMS Hydroelectric dams produce electricity by using dammed water to turn turbines. By opening the dam’s sluices, falling water then turns propeller-like turbines, which then turns metal shafts in electric generators. It is the motor that produces electricity. In this case the energy extracted from the water depends on the volume and on the difference in height between the source and the water's outflow. Hydroelectricity produced by Hydroelectric dams is the most widely used form of renewable energy. Once a hydroelectric complex is ... Read More

Categories: Renewable Energy

Ocean Thermal Plant

[ad] ALTERNATIVE ENERGY - OCEAN THERMAL ENERGY – THE FACTS – A process called Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) uses the heat energy stored in the Earth's oceans to generate electricity. OTEC works best when the temperature difference between the warmer, top layer of the ocean and the colder, deep ocean water is about 20°C (36°F). These conditions exist in tropical coastal areas, roughly between the Tropic of Capricorn and the Tropic of Cancer. To bring the cold water to the surface, OTEC plants require ... Read More

Alternative Energy - SOLAR POWER (solar panels) [ad] Solar energy is one the most resourceful sources of energy for the future. One of the reasons for this is that the total energy we receive each year from the sun is around 35,000 times the total energy used by man. However, about 1/3 of this energy is either absorbed by the outer atmosphere or reflected back into space (a process called Albedo). Solar energy is presently being used on a smaller scale in furnaces for homes ... Read More
