renewable energy is derived from the natural processes that are replenished constantly. in its various forms, it derives directly from the sun, or from the deep heat generated from the earth. it isdefined as the electricity and heat being generated from solar, wind, ocean, hydropower, biomass, geothermal resources, biofuels, and the obtained hydrogen from the renewable resources. the renewable ...

Worldwide efforts are being made to increase the use of renewable energy in order to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases. Africa is blessed with abundant resources of fossil fuels as well as renewable energy resources. Yet the continent, especially sub-Saharan Africa, is afflicted with power crisis. For example, in Nigeria, erratic electricity supplies will persist unless the government div...

Emission reduction targets as well as the scarcity of fossil resources make a transition of the energy system towards a carbon free electricity supply necessary. Promising energy resources are solar and wind energy. The challenging characteristics of the high temporal and geographic variability of these resources make a systematic analysis of the integration necessary. Subject of this study is ...

Limited resources of fossil energies and climate change have encouraged countries to use renewable energies like wind energy. Although Iran has enormous natural resources of fossil fuels, environmental considerations and the depletion of these resources in the future have increased interest in renewable energies. In this paper, the magnitude and power of wind in Hormozgan province, southern Ira...
