Types of
Renewable
Energy
Sources
Solar Energy
Energy from the sun,
captured by solar
panels to produce
electricity or heat.
Wind Energy
Energy generated from
wind using wind
turbines. Common in
open areas or
offshore.
Hydropower
(Water Energy):
Produced by moving
water, usually from
dams or rivers.
Geothermal Energy :
Uses the heat from
inside the Earth to
produce electricity and
heating.
Biomass Energy :
Made from organic
materials like plants,
wood, and waste.

Advantages
of
Renewable
Energy
Environmentally friendly
1.Reduces harmful air pollutants
2.Combat climate change
3.Relies on natural renewbale
resources
Unlimited Supply
1.Renewable energy technologies use resources
straight from the environment to generate power
2.Does not deplete quickly
Job Creation
The renewable energy sector creates
new jobs in science, engineering, and
construction.

Challenges
and the
Future of
Renewable
Energy
Key Challenges of
Renewable Energy
High Initial Costs
Maintenance and infrastructure upgrades add to expenses
Solar, wind, and hydropower require *large upfront investments*
(e.g., wind turbines cost millions).
Solution : Government subsidies, tax incentives, and falling
tech prices.
Intermittency & Energy Storage
Current *battery storage is expensive and limited*
(not enough for grid-scale needs).
Renewable sources *depend on weather* (no sun = no solar
power; no wind = no wind energy).
Solution : Advancements in battery tech (e.g., solid-state batteries),
pumped hydro storage.
Land Use & Environmental Impact
Hydropower dams *disrupt rivers and wildlife*.
Solar/wind farms need *vast land areas*, competing with agriculture
or ecosystems.
Solution : Offshore wind, rooftop solar, and better land-use
planning
Grid Infrastructure & Compatibility
Existing power grids were built for *fossil fuels*, not variable
renewables.
Requires *expensive upgrades* to handle decentralized energy
sources.
Solution : Smart grids, decentralized microgrids, and
government funding.
Political & Economic Barriers
*Fossil fuel lobbying* slows renewable policies.
Some countries resist due to *job losses in coal/oil industries*.
Solution : Stronger international agreements (e.g., Paris Accord),
green job training.
Public Resistance & Misinformation
Local opposition to projects
Myths about renewables being "unreliable" or "too expensive."
Solution : Community engagement, education, and transparent
benefits (e.g., lower bills).
The Future of
Renewable Energy
Exponential Growth in Adoption
Solar & wind will supply *~50% of global electricity by 2050* (IEA
forecast).
Costs dropping : Solar is now the cheapest energy in history (IRENA).
Breakthroughs in Energy Storage
Next-gen batteries : Solid-state, graphene, and flow batteries for
longer storage.
Green hydrogen : Stores excess energy for industries and
transport.
Smarter Grids & AI Integration
Smart grids balance supply/demand in real-time using AI.
Microgrids empower rural areas with independent renewable
systems.
Offshore Wind & Floating Solar
Offshore wind farms (e.g., UK’s Dogger Bank) harness
stronger winds at sea.
Floating solar panels on reservoirs/lakes save land and reduce
evaporation.
