G8 Renewable Energy Task Force Working together and with existing institutions to encourage and facilitate investment in the development and use of sustainable energy, underpinned by enabling domestic environments, will assist in mitigating the problems of climate change and air pollution. To this end, the increased use of renewable energy sources in particular will improve the quality of life, especially in developing countries. We therefore call on all stakeholders to identify the barriers and solutions to elevating the level of renewable energy supply and distribution in developing countries. We invite stakeholders to join in a Task Force to prepare concrete recommendations for consideration at our next Summit regarding sound ways to better encourage the use of renewables in developing countries. www.g8kyushu-okinawa.go.jp/e/documents/commu.html The Work of the Task Force The Task Force has been established to identify the main barriers to the use of renewable sources of energy, particularly in developing countries where 2 billion people do not have access to reliable sources of energy. The Task Force is charged with recommending practical actions which G8 governments can take to help remove these barriers. The Co-Chairmen aim to submit the report of the Task Force to G8 Heads of Government by the end of March 2001. Who is on the Task Force?

Search renewable energy No single solution can meet our society's future energy needs. The solution instead will come from a family of diverse energy technologies that share a common thread they do not deplete our natural resources or destroy our environment. Renewable energy technologies tap into natural cycles and systems, turning the ever-present energy around us into usable forms. The movement of wind and water, the heat and light of the sun, heat in the ground, the carbohydrates in plants all are natural energy sources that can supply our needs in a sustainable way. Because they are home-grown, renewables can also increase energy security and create local jobs. Our current energy system relies primarily on fossil and nuclear fuels. Fossil fuel burning pollutes our air, water, and land harming human health and threatening the planet with global warming. Nuclear energy creates enormous risks. Electricity generators are the single largest class of industrial polluters. We can increase our reliance on renewable energy by enacting supportive federal and state policies, reducing barriers to the adoption of renewable technologies and by encouraging individual, business, and government purchasers of energy to use renewables. And by ensuring that we use energy more efficiently. UCS is working for sustainable energy policies at the federal and state level. Much of our current work in this area has focused on electric industry restructuring, a movement to introduce competition in electricity generation. Restructuring the largest polluting industry creates great risks and great opportunities. Done incorrectly, pollution could increase, new technology could stagnate, and existing renewables could be shut down. Done well, we could reduce emissions and increase our use of clean and renewable technologies.

What is Renewable Energy? R enewable energy refers to energy resources that occur naturally and repeatedly in the environmental and can be harnessed for human benefit. Examples of renewable energy systems include solar, wind, and geothermal energy (getting energy from the heat in the earth). We also get renewable energy from trees and plants, rivers, and even garbage. Renewable energy encompasses many different types of technology at different stages of development and commercialisation, from the burning of wood for heat in the residential sector (traditional and low-technology) to wind-generated electricity (widespread and technically proven) to processes such as biomass gasification for electricity generation (still under development although some plants are operating).

The Renewable Energy Analytic Studies Network (REASN) is a one-stop-shop for reports, tools, and data related to financial and policy analysis of renewable energy technologies Economic Valuation of a Geothermal Production Tax Credit The United States (U.S.) geothermal industry has a 45-year history. However, by the mid-1990s, the market for new geothermal power plants began to disappear because the high power prices paid under many PURPA contracts switched to a lower price based on an avoided cost calculation that reflected the low fossil fuel-prices of the early 1990s. One potentially attractive incentive for the geothermal industry is the Production Tax Credit (PTC). The current PTC, which was enacted as part of the Energy Policy Act of 1992 provides an inflation-adjusted 1.5 cent per kilowatt-hour (kWh) federal tax credit for electricity produced from wind and closed-loop biomass resources. This report focuses on the project-level financial impacts of the proposed PTC expansion to geothermal power plants. Feature Archive Are Renewables the Answer to Electricity Price Volatility?

Bradley Jr. is president of the Institute for Energy Research in Houston, Texas, the author of the two-volume Oil, Gas, and Government: The U.S. Experience, and an adjunct scholar of the Cato Institute. Executive Summary A multi-billion-dollar government crusade to promote renewable energy for electricity generation, now in its third decade, has resulted in major economic costs and unintended environmental consequences. Even improved new generation renewable capacity is, on average, twice as expensive as new capacity from the most economical fossil-fuel alternative and triple the cost of surplus electricity. Solar power for bulk generation is substantially more uneconomic than the average; biomass, hydroelectric power, and geothermal projects are less uneconomic. Wind power is the closest to the double-triple rule. The uncompetitiveness of renewable generation explains the emphasis pro-renewable energy lobbyists on both the state and federal levels put on quota requirements, as well as continued or expanded subsidies. Yet every major renewable energy source has drawn criticism from leading environmental groups: hydro for river habitat destruction, wind for avian mortality, solar for desert overdevelopment, biomass for air emissions, and geothermal for depletion and toxic discharges.

Hydroelectric power generates about 10% of the nation's energy. Credit: US Army Corps of Engineers Introduction to hydroelectric power Flowing water creates energy that can be captured and turned into electricity. This is called hydroelectric power or hydropower The most common type of hydroelectric power plant uses a dam on a river to store water in a reservoir. Water released from the reservoir flows through a turbine, spinning it, which in turn activates a generator to produce electricity. But hydroelectric power doesn't necessarily require a large dam. Some hydroelectric power plants just use a small canal to channel the river water through a turbine. pumped storage plant A small or micro-hydroelectric power system can produce enough electricity for a home, farm, or ranch. More information for: Farmers and ranchers Homeowners Electricity providers Students and teachers NREL doesn't perform any research in hydroelectric power technologies.

Renewable energy From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Renewable energy is energy from a source which can be managed so that it is not subject to depletion in a human timescale . Sources include the sun 's rays, wind, waves, rivers, tides, biomass , and geothermal . Renewable energy does not include energy sources which are dependent upon limited resources , such as fossil fuels and nuclear fission power Table of contents 1 General Information 2 Pros and cons of renewable energy 3 Renewable energy history 3.1 Wood ... edit General Information Most renewable forms of energy, other than geothermal, are in fact stored solar energy. Water power and wind power represent very short-term solar storage, while biomass represents slightly longer-term storage, but still on a very human time-scale, and so renewable within that human time-scale. Fossil fuels, on the other hand, while still stored solar energy, have taken millions of years to form, and so do not meet the definition of renewable. Renewable energy resources may be used directly as energy sources, or used to create other forms of energy for use. Examples of direct use are solar ovens , geothermal heat pumps , and mechanical windmills . Examples of indirect use in creating other energy sources are electricity generation through wind generators or photovoltaic cells, or production of fuels such as
