The waste and dead parts of living organisms (plants and animals) such as wood, straw, cow dung, agricultural wastes and household rubbish are collectively called as bio mass. The bio energy produced by burning or processing of bio-mass is the main source of energy...

Geothermal Energy

In those areas of the earth where the level of volcanic activities is quite high, the rocks present in the earth are usually very hot. This heat energy of rocks present in the earth is called geothermal energy and can be used to produce electricity. To produce...

Ocean Thermal Energy

Ocean Thermal Energy Different layers of ocean have different temperature. Usually, the water at the surface of oceans is hot due to sunlight. While the water present in the deeper layers of oceans is cold. The difference in temperature of hot water present at the...

Tidal Energy

Oceans are major source of energy. From oceans following types of energies can be obtained. Tidal energy Sea waves energy and Ocean thermal energy Tidal EnergyTidal energy may be defined as the energy possessed by water during high tides and low tides. The tidal...

Hydroelectric Power

Flowing water is also an important renewable source of energy. The kinetic energy of flowing water has also been used for centuries by human beings for various works. For example, the energy of flowing water has been used for centuries by human beings to transport...

Wind Energy

Wind is a renewable source of energy. Blowing air is known as wind. Since wind is moving air, so it possesses kinetic energy. The kinetic energy of wind has been used for centuries by human beings for doing various types of works. For example, Wind energy is used to...
