When you see the words "alternative energy sources" one thing I want to believe comes to your mind is the usage of alternative forms of energy to generate power for commercial or individual usage. So what then are the alternative sources that avails man as a consumer on earth? Herewith are sources of energy you should know. - Solar source We all know what a solar power is gotten from in our first grade class but what we do not know is that is can be used by man to generate electrical power to the benefit of man. From time past people have been using this form of energy to their best of understanding knowledge simply as a source for their daily needs domestically. Today solar energy has become the most reckoned with the use of fossil fuel courtesy to the use of silicon made sheet type of metal called photovoltaic energy cell (PV) converting solar radiation from the sun into usable electricity. - Wind source Wind is another form of generating energy and has been in use since the age long years In BC and beyond for domestic purposes. In our current generations today wind turbine are now positioned in various places to generate electrical power for industrial of commercial home use. - Tidalsource As the name implies tidal power involves the use of the tidal forces of sea level waves as a source for energy creation, this is one good source of energy with inexhaustible availability but with restriction to some certain parts of the world. - Biomass source of energy This refers to the type of energy produced in its biological form, from trees, waste, agriculture and what have you. These forms of energy generation uses the sun as a catalyst to convert carbon dioxide from air and water into carbohydrates from the chlorophyll in green plants. - Geothermal source This form of energy production as to do with the availability of energy generating features of the lower layer of the earth crust i.e. (energy produced in the lower hot layer of the earth), unlike all


the other forms of energy a geothermal power station is quite expensive to build but is worth the benefits of a zero carbon emission output. - Nuclear source As we all know nuclear energy has been in use for the past 50yrs for various reasons, some deadly, some experimental, but a controlled type of nuclear reaction can be used as a source of alternative energy and more. See details in the link below.

Cut down on your electrical bills today with information's and materials you can build your own source of alternative energy.
