With rising temperatures, high levels of toxic gases in the atmosphere, the proportion and risk of global warming increase, and the need for new sources of energy to reduce the environmental and economic burdens of traditional energy sources ( Oil, coal, natural gas).

 

solar energy  :

Solar energy is the most important source of renewabفle energy, because it is widely used in supplying homes and projects with electricity.

 

 

Wind Energy :

Used for mechanical or electrical power generation, Wind turbines, which are huge fan-shaped devices, convert energy from wind to mechanical energy. Mechanical energy is also used in many tasks: grinding grain, pumping water, and converting it into electrical energy.

 

 

Geothermal energy  :

Geothermal heat is used as an important energy source from large power plants to relatively small and relatively small pumping systems, known as Earth Energy.

It can be obtained from deep wells and is widely used today in the world because it is less expensive than fossil fuels that cause environmental and health risks.

 

 

Hydroelectric energy  :

Is one of the types of energy that can be obtained by harnessing the power of water flowing from a high place. It is renewable energy. Large generators convert energy from water to electrical energy by turning water energy into mechanical energy and then into electrical energy.

Obstacles to access to alternative energy

 

 

The high structural financial cost of extending power generation tools located in the sun or wind.

 

Low-income people cannot afford to pay for the extension (although the electricity bills in two or three years are equivalent to the price of a natural power

extension for a house with all its needs!)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

    The price of extending an electrical power through a natural source (such as the sun or air) to a house starts at $ 4,000 ($ 4000). Of course, this varies from country to country and from one service provider to another and certainly varies according to your energy needs. price.  Lack of technical crews concerned with the extension and maintenance of alternative power generation tools, due to lack of demand for this type of trade        

 

.– Some countries do not encourage their citizens, individuals, institutions and companies to establish banking facilities and to enact legislative laws that grant this right to all.

 

The erroneous vision of some governments that rely entirely on oil as a source of energy and avoid talking about other sources.

 

The dependence of oil on certain external entities seeks to block any effort to adopt alternative energy as a huge resource.

Pros of alternative energy

 

 

Save Money With Alternative 

Energy

 

Most people decide to install solar or wind energy to save money in the long run. After the initial cost of the unit and installation, these alternative energy sources do indeed pay off. Solar panels can be a great investment because after they pay for themselves, thus homeowners essentially do not pay anything for the electricity they generate. And with our great financing (as low as 2.99%!) you usually end up with payments that are lower than your current electric bill. That’s right – you can use the money you are already giving the electric company to pay for your solar system .

 

Eco-Friendly and great for the 

Environment

 

While cost savings are one of the biggest benefits of renewable energy, many people switch in order to do their part for the environment. There are zero greenhouse or carbon emissions from solar and wind energies once they are installed. Even for skeptics that deny global warming, improved air quality ona grand scale is something we can all benefit from. They do not deplete any of the Earth’s valuable resources, and solar and wind will never run out.

 

Alternative Energy Creates Jobs

 

From the beginning of renewable energy appearing in the market, many more stable jobs have been added to the world economy. Germany and the UK benefit from ongoing addition of jobs in their market because their governments encourage the use of these energies. Experts are predicting that the same is possible in the U.S. On top of creating jobs, renewable energy is cheaper to use than traditional sources of energy that many companies are

currently using.
