"Introduction of Renewable Energy"
Demand for energy is increasing with continual development
of industries, our lifestyles and for sourcing new technologies. But due to
fast depletion of non-renewable resources such as coal, petroleum, natural gas,
etc. the non-conventional sources of energy such as Solar energy, wind energy,
biomass, tidal energy, geo-thermal energy and even energy from waste material
are gaining importance. This energy is inexhaustible, renewable, pollution free
and eco-friendly.
Non-conventional energy caters to two big benefits, one it
can be easily and conveniently supplied to urban, rural or any remote areas and
second it can sustain clearer environment.
As per energy experts, India’s
non- conventional energy potential is approximately 1, 95,000 MW. An estimate
of 31 per cent of this potential comes from sun, 30 per cent from
ocean-thermal, 26 per cent from bio-fuel and 13 per cent from wind.
