What is Renewable Green Energy? Renewable Green energy is sustainable energy that comes from the natural environment. Renewable sources of energy include solar, wind, water, biomass, wood, waste, geothermal, wind, photovoltaic, and solar thermal energy. Non renewable energy sources include coal, oil and natural gas.
How does renewable green energy work?
The heat from the sun can be used to heat water or air for residential, commercial and industrial use. Sunlight also provides heating and can be converted to electricity using photovoltaic (solar electric) panels. This electricity can be used to operate a multitude of electrical appliances. The sun's energy (light, heat, ultraviolet) can also be converted into heat using solar thermal (heating) panels.
Wind and flowing water is also another way that can be used to generate electricity. The energy from the wind can be harnessed by wind turbines and windmills to generate electricity and also to pump water
What are the benefits of using renewable green energy?
One of the greatest benefits of renewable energy is its potential to provide affordable and clean sources of electricity. Renewable energy also minimizes pollution and positively impacts the environment in many ways, thus companies who choose to use renewable energy enhance their capital and hence are considered to be socially responsible corporate citizens.
Do you really think solar and renewable energies are a good investment?
Yes. Solar energy and other forms of renewable energy (such as geothermal) will become cheaper as people continue to invest in them. When people invest in them, this will drive down the cost-- as it already has over the last few decades. This has a snowball effect: the technology becomes increasingly usable, cheaper and convenient.
Can I really use renewable green energy to power my home or business?
Yes, Solar or Wind power systems are reliable, clean for environment and bring no additional cost to the user after installation.
When will renewable energy replace coal and nuclear power plants?
Right now! In Japan , Germany and some developing countries, renewable energies are already competitive due to a number of market forces. These same market forces are becoming increasingly relevant to consumers in North America (i.e. the high price of fossil fuels, increasing government incentives and concern for global warming, to name a few).
What are the environmental benefits of renewable energy?
Every kilowatt-hour of electricity produced by a renewable energy system displaces the same amount of electricity produced by conventional power generation stations that are using fossil fuels that contribute to CO2, SO2, NOx and smog. Clean renewable energy production reduces suspended particulates we usually call smog, which are a significant health problem on the same hot sunny days when (for example) a solar energy system can produce electricity at its peak level.
How much do any of these renewable energy systems cost, and how much will I save on utility bills?
The cost to buy a solar or wind power system depends on its size, location and where it will be installed. Also the number of storage batteries needed is a factor in determining the cost. In most metropolitan cities of Pakistan the cost for a typical one Kilowatt generation system runs approximately from U.S. $ 6000-$8000. The initial cost may be higher, but it pays for itself when you stop paying high electric bill. There is no fuel needed to run green renewable power system. Once the green energy system is installed there is no electricity bill for life.
Is there any financial assistance available for installing renewable energy systems?
Yes, In Pakistan financing is available through HizPower Systems, for qualified customers who can pay 25% down payment for their orders.
Where can I find out about renewable energy dealers, sales, installation and equipment?
In Pakistan , HizPower Systems is the only place that has complete green & renewable energy resources available for both home and commercial use. For more information please contact HizPower System info@hizpower.com. |
