  • You’ve heard about green energy, but what exactly is it, and where can you look for the right information and resources?

  • Clean, inexhaustible and competitively-priced, green energy technologies continue to evolve as a way to harness sustainable and natural resources, without producing greenhouse gases or polluting emissions.

     

 

Green energy produces electricity by harnessing several natural sources:

Wind: energy is obtained from wind using windmills or turbines.

Solar Photovoltaic (PV): green energy technology that uses semiconductors to convert sunlight into electricity.

Solar Thermal: also using energy from the sun, thermal systems are employed for heating water or air.

Hydro: harnesses the power of water to generate electricity. 

Biomass: uses organic material such as wood, grass and crops to generate energy.
