African's Stepping Up To Address Climate Change With Renewable Energy With Enormous Potential For the Continent

ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates — Africa’s growing economy and reliance on carbon-emitting energy from wood and charcoal could “exponentially” worsen global warming unless the continent steps up its investment in wind, solar and hydro power, the head of a new international energy agency said Friday.

The key to ramping up renewable energy resources is to develop a regulatory framework to convince institutional investors it’s safe to put their money into these cutting-edge technologies, Adnan Amin told nearly 30 African energy and foreign affairs ministers at the start of a two-day meeting.

“If Africa continues to grow at pace it is growing and intensifies that growth and uses only carbon-emitting forms of energy, it will exponentially change the picture on climate change and make it much worse,” said Amin, a Kenyan who is director general of the International Renewable Energy Agency.

“We need right now to start making the kinds of investment that will lead Africa on a very different path,” he said.

Alternative Energy 101 Wind, Solar and Geothermal Alternative Energy Sources

As alternative energy is gaining popularity, wind, solar, and geothermal energy are probably terms your are getting more familiar with. But you may not know about the pros and cons of these, including the set-up costs, potential savings, and other intricate details. Here are some of the basics about these types of sustainable energy.

1. Wind Energy

Wind is a renewable energy source. Even though it comes and goes, it can’t be used up. This makes it an attractive choice for homeowners, and is considered a viable means by which entire communities can be supplied with electricity. The wind’s energy is harnessed by rotating blades of various shapes and sizes (wind turbines). Continue Reading Alternative Energy 101 Wind, Solar and Geothermal Alternative Energy Sources Here

Important Facts About Building Wind Turbine / Top 10 Facts About Building Wind Turbines

As we know a wind turbine converts the energy of wind into kinetic energy. If the mechanical energy is used directly by machinery, such as pumping water, cutting lumber or grinding stones, the machine is called a windmill. Further if we convert mechanical energy to electricity we use wind turbines also called wind Generator or wind energy converter.

The top or main facts about building wind turbines are that the fuel prices continues to rise hire and hire that results in increase in our utility expenses. The cost to maintain the necessity called electricity is escalating by the hour, and more and more people are looking for suitable alternatives to conventional energy. Renewable energy stands out as the most suitable alternative, with wind power being the most popular and rapidly growing option. Apart from standing out in abilities, wind power energy stands out in its cost-effectiveness and savings potential.

The Statistics show that the wind energy output is increased by four times between 2001 and now. Wind power is becoming increasingly popular because it is clean, renewable, easier and cheaper to access than other forms of renewable energy. Wind turbines have been surfacing all over the world as more and more people are installing windplans wind turbines and taking themselves off the grid. Imagine the considerable savings when compared to getting a commercially installed renewable energy system!

And one more important fact is that wind energy accounts for only about 1% of the world’s alternative energy use. Some of the countries have taken bigger steps for using more and more wind energy. As more people begin using wind turbines and the technology develops, the cost of acquiring wind turbines is gradually decreasing. That is great news for those looking to save using wind energy.

Let we introduce you to one more important fact of wind energy. Your electricity bill can be cut in half right away by installing a single wind turbine to generate half of your energy requirements. The amount of electrical power that you need determines which type and size turbine you will need. Are you getting energized now?

Wind has been a source of green energy for several years. The primary early use of this green energy is to pump water and mill grain. Recently improvements in the technology of wind turbines have enabled the use of harnessed wind for the generation of electricity at a large amount.

Wind Energy neither produces emissions or pollutants during their operation, Thus helps in reducing global warming.

Taking into account the benefits of wind energy windplans has made considerable changes in the technology of developing wind turbines.
