Renewable energy and alternative energy
Alternative energy is any kind of energy that is not oil or hydrocarbon based. Not all alternative energy is renewable but there are a lot of renewable energy sources we could be using. Some forms of alternative energy are even good for the environment and it’s these renewable energy sources we really need to be looking at.
We can’t keep paying the amounts we do, to other countries, to import oil. It’s imperative for our own national security that we develop alternative sources that can supply our needs and it’s also imperative that it be done very quickly. I have no confidence that the govt will be helpful in creating an energy policy that leads us to energy independence.
There is a lot of energy that we can harness if we only seek to research and develop the technologies needed to do so. We can get away from the fossil fuels and the old electrical grids by turning to alternatives to these energy sources.
Environmental Power is an alternative energy supplier that has two subsidiary companies. One of these is Microgy, which is Environmental Power’s research and development arm. Microgy is a developer of biogas facilities for the cost-effective and environmentally clean production of renewable energy derived from food and agricultural waste products.
These biogas fuels can be used in a number of different applications. They can be used in combustion chamber engines, used directly to make fossil fuel reliance less of a need, or cleaned up to meet natural gas standards and then piped to offices or homes for heating.
Environmental Power’s other subsidiary is Buzzard Power. Buzzard has an 83 megawatt power facility which generates green energy from mined coal waste. Environmental Power says of itself, we have a long and successful history of developing clean energy facilities.
