Green electricity is the cleanest, most beneficial forms of renewable energy. For example, municipal solid waste or large scale hydro-power are indeed renewable but still have major polluting capacity. These are the energy sources considered to provide green electricity. Currently, the usable energy is basically harvested from the fossil energy sources, including coal, oil, and gas, which are believed to harm the environment due to the emitted GHGs. The awareness to the climate change and limited reserve of fossil energy sources has led to a strong motivation to develop a new energy system which can facilitate three important pillars: security, clean environment, and economic opportunity. This future energy system is strongly expected to be able to blend both fossil and renewable energy sources, while minimize its environmental impacts. To realize it, the primary energy sources are converted to the efficient secondary energy sources, including electricity and hydrogen. These two kinds of secondary energy source are considered very promising in the future, following a high demand in many sectors. In transportation sector, both electricity and hydrogen are believed to become the future fuels as the deployment of electric and fuel cell vehicles is increasing rapidly.
How Promising for
if electricity generation is based on fossil fuel, then places where electricity is consumed can be very clear, but the places where it is produced rather dirty.
To ask for green energy / green electricity thus is a fair request. Solar energy appears to me as a clean energy / electricity. More expensive than electricity from fossil fuel, but in this external costs are not included, e.g. the costs to rectify the damages caused by increased emissions of greenhouse gases, which are produced when fossil fuels are burnt.
In Suva / Fiji where I live and work I made interesting observations: people living in informal settlements are using solar panels much more than other residents of the city. They often face difficulties to get a power connection and small solar panels enables them to run a few light bulbs and recharge their mobile phones. For their children this makes a huge difference: now they have light in the evenings and the hours they can do their school homework are extended.
I would like to send my patent related to such subject
Dear Prof.,
This is my patent related to green energy so, I hope it may help you. Also, I have wide experience of construction such machine not only for production of green energy but also for production of high add value materials from different types of wastes as shown in the attached videos.
Yes, it's an important contribution. Green electricity will solve several problems.
Regards!
Well, to me if the issue of materials to use for storage device can be solved finally, solar PV/Electricity is still best clean energy.
