The Need For Renewable Energy

Energy Glass Solar™ The Best Of Renewable Energy!

Energy Glass Solar™, an alternative energy, patented, optically clear electric producing glass, is not an added cost to a building project as are other alternative renewables. Combined with the Federal Investment Tax Credits (ITC), Energy Glass Solar™ is a less expensive alternative for standard plate glass, saving the builder initial costs and on-going energy costs

Why Renewable Energy?

At least $4 trillion a year needs to be invested in renewable energy until 2030 – including investments in technology and infrastructure – to allow us to reach net-zero emissions by 2050. Four key climate change indicators – greenhouse gas concentrations, sea level rise, ocean heat and ocean acidification – set new records in 2021. This is yet another clear sign that human activities are causing planetary-scale changes on land, in the ocean, and in the atmosphere, with dramatic and long-lasting ramification

The transition to green energy has never been more important. As carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere continue to rise and the earth continues to warm, finding ways to deploy clean, renewable sources of energy like solar, wind, and geothermal power is critical to improving the long-term climate outlook. Derived from natural resources that are abundant and continuously replenished, renewable energy is key to a safer, cleaner, and sustainable world.

Renewable energy describes a collection of energy technologies, i.e., solar, wind, geothermal derived from sources that are never-ending and can be replenished time after time. Renewable sources are renewable, sustainable, abundant, and environmentally friendly. Unlike fossil fuels, they are not going to expire soon as they are constantly replenished.

The Most Widespread Sources Of Energy

While the advantages and disadvantages of renewable energy exist, the advantages of using renewable forms of energy far outweigh the disadvantages, more so moving to the future.

Wind: This takes advantage of wind motion to generate electricity. Wind motion is brought about by the heat from the sun, and rotation of the earth, mainly via the Coriolis Effect.

Solar: It taps heat from the sun to produce energy for the generation of electricity, heating, lighting homes and commercial buildings.

Hydropower: Utilizes moving water to produce electricity. Moving water creates high energy that can be harnessed and turned into power.

Biomass: Together with snow and rain, sunlight is essential for plant growth. Organic matter that constitutes plants is referred to as biomass, which can be utilized to generate electricity, chemicals or fuels to power vehicles.

Ocean: Takes advantage of rising and falling of tides to generate electricity

Geothermal: Leverages heat from underneath the earth to generate electricity.

EnergyGlass™ - Types of Renewable Energy

Advantages of Renewable Energy

  • Renewable Energy is Eco-friendly – Renewable energy is considered clean energy since it doesn’t cause grave environmental pollution, and it has low or zero carbon and greenhouse emission.
  • It’s a Renewable Resource – This implies that they do not deplete over a lifetime, and there is zero possibility that they will run out (sustainable source of energy).
  • Renewable Energy is a Reliable Source of Energy – Although most argue that solar and wind energy is unreliable, a solid infrastructure puts this argument to rest. If solar and wind plants are distributed over a large geographical location, there can be minimal electricity generation interruption because weather disruptions in one location cannot be the same in other locations.
  • Leads to Job Creation – Renewable energy makes real economic sense because it is a cheaper alternative to most traditional sources of energy. Since the inception of renewable energy, new and stable jobs have been added to most world economies. Experts project that with the ongoing rigorous campaigns to embrace renewable energy, thousands of stable jobs will be created.
  • Renewable Energy has Stabilized Global Energy Prices – Change up to renewable sources of energy means the stability of energy prices across the globe. This is because the cost of renewable energy depends on the initial cost of installation of renewable energy technologies as opposed to fossil fuels, which increase and decrease depending on the current inflation and availability of the resource. Respective governments would only need to cater to the initial costs, and that’s it.
  • Less Maintenance of Facilities – Renewable energy technologies require less overall maintenance than traditional generators that use traditional fuel sources. This renewable energy generating technology like solar panels and wind turbines either have few or no moving parts.
  • Boosts Public Health – This is a no-brainer. The sources for renewable energy generation emit little to no greenhouse gases or pollutants into the air. This means a smaller carbon footprint and an overall healthier atmosphere.
  • It is a Technology – Over time, technology becomes cheaper when production and installation methods are refined; therefore, renewables are on a path that will constantly become cheaper.

  • Renewables Save Money And Are Profitable – Renewable energy helps in saving money in the long term. You will save not only on maintenance costs but on operating costs as well. As you’re using a technology that generates power from the sun, wind, steam, or natural processes, you don’t have to pay to refuel.

  • Lower Reliance on Foreign Energy Sources – Renewable energy technologies allow people to produce energy locally. The more you’re using renewable energy for your power needs, the less you’ll be dependent on imported energy, and the more you’ll contribute to the country’s energy independence.
