When thinking about renewable energy, we think about learning how to be able to reuse the same resources to get more energy. There are many forms in getting energy to power our homes. We also have to stop and think about where all this energy is coming from and will we run out of the all our sources to provide more energy. One way we get energy is from drilling hole in the land to be able to get oil to burn to keep running the energy, but eventually that will all end and what are we going to do.

manufacturing and assembling components for the nuclear reactor. His understanding of sustainability is that sustainable energy does not exist in reality. He stated that energies such as solar, wind and tidal would not be possible without the Earth and the Sun. Dave believes nuclear energy can last longer for the foreseeable future in terms of efficiency, and it might be the key energy when other resources such as oil and gas are depleted. When

SmartGrids and associated challenges in the transition towards the grid of the future P. Favre-Perrod, Member, IEEE, R. Critchley, E. Catz & M. Bazargan electricity networks. Abstract – Different concepts for the long term evolution of electricity networks have been proposed. Visions of large scale, continent-wide interconnections, local scale independent distribution network cells and networks integrating other forms of energy have emerged. The inclusion of new classes of network participants, e.g.

explain the implicit and explicit costs involved? Answer The best valuation technique to use to prevent global warming would be the use of wind energy. I believe the use of the windmill will be a good measure and will quickly improve the environment. The cost of operating wind energy is more expensive, but I think our environment is well worth the cost. Some drawbacks of wind energy include, noise disturbances which all though wind energy are non-polluting, and the windmills may create some amount of noise when it’s turning. Wildlife can

renewable energy within Australia, particularly Solar Energy has a huge scope of serious development and benefit to our future energy needs. Our country to this date has the highest average solar radiation per square meter of any country in the world (Geoscience Australia, 2012). Even our solar radiation in the southern regions has a higher overall radiation than countries like Germany, who are one of the most developed nations in terms of Solar Energy. Since late 2012, 10% of Australian energy relies
