1. Fossil fuel energy :-
FOSSIL FUEL ENERGY POWER PLANT |
Fossil fuel energy is a energy which is generate
from buried dead organism by anaerobic decomposition of organic body. This fuel
is meet by natural process. Kerosene and propane is common type of fuel energy.
2. Solar energy :-
SOLAR ENERGY COLLECTOR FARM |
The all energy is generate due to sun. That was we
called the sun is father of all energy. Generally the energy meet from the
solar radiation is known as solar energy. Mainly at a present time solar energy
is a main resource of renewable energy. It was mostly used in the world. The energy
is use in different application like (electricity, heating, cooling, cooking,
furnace and etc.)
The Sun is the most widespread and infinite source
of energy, which transmits energy from radiation in the form of photons (small
light-wave-boxes) in the atmosphere. Probably the most important chemical
reaction on Earth can be considered photosynthesis, which occurs with green
plants of sunlight. Therefore, solar energy is considered the major conductor
of life on Earth. It is estimated that only one percent of the total energy
capacity of the sun - 75000 x 1018 kW can meet the entire energy requirement of
the Earth.
India gets energy equivalent to 5000 trillion
kilowatt hour per year. The average per day geographical location is 4-7
kilowatt hours per square meter. The annual percentage of global solar
radiation is 5.5 kWh per square meter per day in India. Significantly, the
highest annual radiation is received in Ladakh, western Rajasthan and Gujarat
and the lowest radiation is received in the north-eastern regions. We can use
it in two ways - solar photo-voltaic and solar thermal.

3. Wind energy:-
WIND TURBINE |
The energy generate from wind is known as wind
energy. In a technical word the wind energy is the kinetic energy associated
with movement of large masses of air. These motion result from uneven heating
of the atmosphere the sun, creating temperature, density, and pressure difference.
The wind energy is generate by the help of wind turbines. And use as electricity
production and pumping of water etc.
Gujarat, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh,
Rajasthan, Tamil Nadu and Maharashtra are the leading states in terms of wind
energy efficiency. As of the year 2009-10, Tamil Nadu has installed the highest
wind turbines at Mupadanal Perugundi
near Kanyakumari in the country. The Center for Wind Energy Technology has been
established in Chennai.
The kinetic energy earned due to wind speed is wind
energy. It is a renewable energy source. Wind has been used as a source of
energy for many centuries, such as in grain shattering, wind powered boats,
etc. Modern windmills are constructed in such a way that they can convert wind
energy into mechanical or electrical energy.
Wind energy can be used in pumping water for
irrigation, in addition to generating electricity. According to the Annual
Report (2004-05) of the Ministry of Non-Conventional Energy Sources (MNES), the
coastal wind power capacity in India is assessed at 45,000 MW which is 1% of
the land available for wind energy generation. However, the technical capacity
is limited to around 13,000 MW. India ranks fifth in the world in wind power
generation capacity.
4. Biomass energy :-
BIO-GAS ENERGY PLANT |
The energy obtain from biomass is known as biomass
energy. Biomass is a general term for living or non living material which is
organically decompose. The energy is obtain from biomass due to anaerobic
digestion of biomass in digestion tank and produce gas which was we collect in
storage and use as cooking or lighting purpose.
The national program on biomass energy aims to
maximize the use of a wide variety of biomass materials. This includes energy
production from forest and agricultural residues through efficient and modern
technological change in addition to residual, energy-dedicated plantation based
forest and agricultural industries. This includes combustion and gasification
techniques. Plants meant for this include gas / steam turbines, dual fuel
engines or a mixture thereof, which are used only for captive use or for
selling grids for power generation or co-generation of more than one type of
energy. They are renewable, widely available and carbon neutral as well as have
the potential to provide abundant productive employment in rural areas. By
2050, it is estimated that biomass can derive 15–50% of the world's primary
energy use. It is worth noting that at present, about 11 percent of the world's
primary energy is met by biomass. But these fuels do not generate much heat and
when they burn, excessive smoke is produced, hence technology is needed to
promote it. In India, the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy is promoting
three core technologies for the productive use of biomass, bio gases-based
co-generation in sugar mills, biomass power generation and biomass gasification
for thermal and electrical applications. Biogases-based co generation is
traditionally used in sugar industry all over the world to achieve
self-sufficiency in steam and to make electricity production and operation
economical. India today is the leading country in the world to implement modern
co-production project in sugar mills. India produces abundant biomass material
through its agriculture, agro-based industries and forestry operations.
5. Geothermal energy :-
GEOTHERMAL ENERGY PLANT |
Geothermal energy obtain from the earth’s interior in
the form of heat. Volcanoes, geysers, hot springs, and boiling mud pots are visible
evidence of the great reservoir of heat that lie beneath the earth.
India has limited scope for utilization of
geothermal energy source. However, a pilot power project at Manikarna in
Himachal Pradesh under the aegis of National Aeronautical Laboratory (NAL) and
in the entire valley of Ladakh, (Jammu and Kashmir) are undergoing exploratory
studies. A study done by the National Geophysical Research Institute (NGRI)
Hyderabad on the Earth's magnetic field shows the existence of powerful
geothermal sites in Surajkhand in Jharkhand and Tapovan in Uttarakhand.
6. Tidal energy :-
TIDAL ENERGY GENERATOR |
Tidal power or tidal
energy is the form
of hydropower that converts the energy obtained from tides into useful forms of power, mainly electricity.
Although not yet widely used, tidal energy has potential for future electricity generation. Tides are more
predictable than the wind and the sun.
7. Ocean thermal energy :-
OCEAN THERMAL ENERGY PLANT DIAGRAM |
Ocean thermal energy
is obtain from ocean due to temperature different of the warm surface water and
the colder deep water. OTEC plants pump
large quantities of deep cold seawater and surface seawater to run a power cycle and
produce electricity.
8. Ocean wave energy :-
OCEAN WAVE ENERGY PLANT DIAGRAM |
The energy obtain from the ocean wave is known as
ocean wave energy. The wave energy is generally in the form of mechanical
energy and obtain by installing wave energy converters or wave devices. A wave
devices may be placed in the ocean in various possible situation and locations.
The fluctuating mechanical energy obtained is modified out to drive generator.
