Home Renewable Energy

Renewable energy (also known as renewable power) that when applied called renewable energy system)is an energy that is produced from source that is not consumed in reasonable time. In the last decade there is a growing demand to use renewable power sources mainly due to two reasons:

1. Cost of energy from consumable sources such as fossil petroleum and nuclear energy is rising.
2. The bad effect is these energy sources on the global warming.

That is why today, with small investment, anyone can create Home Renewable energy systems and by that power for home use. It is relevant for any household or small business and by utilizing the renewable energy sources you can save money and contribute your share to the fight against global warming.

There are several sources for renewable energy such as Wind, Bio-energy, Hydro Electric, Geothermal, Sea (Tide and waves) and Solar (Thermo solar and Photo Voltaic). From each source we can create a renewable energy system

Wind energy is one of the leading renewable power methods. It is widely used around the world where countries like Germany, Spain, USA, India and Denmark are the leading countries in that method. If you want to create your own Home Wind power system take a look at Home Made Energy guide

Bio Energy relates to energy that can be produced from organic materials such as oil that comes from Corn or alcohol fuels. This is another source for renewable energy systems. The advantages of Bio energy is that is does not contribute to the Global Greenhouse effect, can be produced in small factories while on the other hand use of woods to create energy will harm the atmosphere and Earth ecology systems

Hydro Electric energy is one more source for renewable energy systems. it is an an energy created from power of running and flowing water streams usually from height differences. It is usually created when water that is conserved by dams released and when falling to lower height they turn a turbine that creates the energy. If you live next to a running stream you can easily create your own Home renewable Power by harnessing the running stream into your needs. More about other sources of Home Power system you can read at Earth 4 Energy guide

Geothermal energy is the third source for renewable energy system. it is created by transferring energy that is created below surface that shifts to ground level. By drilling deep, these energies can be released in a controlled manner and use it to create energy mostly by steam power. In that process there is no burning method so it is clean energy however it is a costly process to drill and harness the released energy in order to create power.

Sea energy created from using the waves' energy as well as the tide to create the required electrical power. This is more an Industrial way to create renewable energy system. The most common method to do that is by putting buoy that while moving with the waves spins a turbine that create the power

Thermo solar method is the conversion of the heat of the sun into power mainly by creating steam and from that moving the turbine.

Another method of using the sun is called Photovoltaic method in which there is a direct conversion of the sun heat into electrical power. The use of solar power to create energy in this method is growing exponentially over the world in the last few years, after many governments as well as people realized they can get real benefits from that and mainly because installing such a system (also for Home Solar Power System) is not as expensive as in the past. Every day the technology of harnessing the renewable energy sources is progressing. Every day, more and more companies that invest in research, release to the market new things, develop new products that give all of us the ability to enjoy the never ending source and to create the power to our needs. If you are concerned that your roof will not be enough for the panels, don’t worry as the technology today moved so much ahead that with it will be much smaller then you might think and with such small solar panel system you will be able to provide all you electricity needs. The same applies for wind turbine. You don’t need a 50 ft. blade turbine and many home wind power systems are small thanks to the research of how to use the wind efficiently and effectively.

However, all of these renewable energy sources are still small in use. For example in US less then 10% of the US sources for creating energy comes from renewable energy sources. Most of the use is by Coal, Gas and Petroleum which directly affects the carbon footprint.
