Clean Energy: Review On Clean Energy Sources

According to Global Economic Symposium (2016), in the past two decades proven gas reserves have increased by 70% and proven oil reserves by 40%. Even though the ultimate objective or solution of the energy crisis is not providing clean energy alone, increasing environmental hazards such as climate change or global warming due to increasing trend in greenhouse gas emission, acid rain and adverse effects of other air pollutants resulting from fuel combustion elevates the need for green energy. This book reviews the current trend of world’s energy consumption, possible mitigations for energy crisis and type of clean energy sources such as geothermal power, hydropower, wind power, solar power, tidal power, wave energy, fuel cell, nuclear power, biofuels and manpower, their electricity generation process, usage, benefits and negative impacts on environmental and human prospective.
