Clean Energy Demand and Supply.

CLEAN ENERGY: DEMAND AND SUPPLY Introduction • Renewable energy, often referred to as clean energy, comes from natural sources or processes that are constantly replenished. • For example, sunlight or wind keep shining and blowing, even if their availability depends on time and weather. Source: theconversation.com ENERGY SOURCES Solar energy • Solar energy is the fastest growing and most affordable source of new electricity in America. • As the cost of solar energy systems dropped significantly, businesses have taken advantage of clean energy. Source: theconversation.com Wind power • Wind power is one of the fastest-growing renewable energy technologies. Wind is used to produce electricity using the kinetic energy created by air in motion. • This is transformed into electrical energy using wind turbines or wind energy conversion systems.

Energy sources using water have been around for thousands of years in the form of water clocks and waterwheels. Source: encyclopedia.com Geothermal energy • Geothermal energy is heat within the earth. The word geothermal comes from the Greek words geo (earth) and therm (heat). • Geothermal energy is a renewable energy source because heat is continuously produced inside the earth.

Hydrogen can be produced from a variety of domestic resources, such as natural gas, nuclear power, biomass, and renewable power like solar and wind.

Peaks in demand exist simply because, at certain times of day, there are a lot of people doing a lot of things that all require electricity.
