Commodious Renewable Energy

Abundance of renewable energy

      Most of us already know that there are lots of renewable energies in this earth. In different countries including Philippines. But does everyone knoe its abundance here in Philippines? These energies that give us the ability to do work? These energies that enable us to live our lives easier everday? But before we inform you about the abundance of renewable energies in the Philippines, let us first enumerate some different types of renewable energies. First, we have the solar, bioenergy, hydroelectric power, hydroge, geothermal and ocean energy

     Sun is one great source of energy. It doesn’t only givesus heat and vitamin D needed for our body. Sun is the unlimited source of solar energy. And this solar energy is very useful because it generates electicity which we use for lighting our school, offices, malls, and most importanly our very own homes. We are very much abundant in means of source of solar energy, especially that the Philippines belongs to the tropical countries where rays of the sun are near. All we need to do is use this energy properly

    As well as the solar energy, biomass can also be used to produce electricity. biomass is the organic matter yhat makes up the plants. It can also be used for transportation fuels or chemicals. Bioenergy is the use of biomass for any of these purposes. And as we all know, Philippines has very good and wide land and good soil for planting tress and different  herbs and plants. Philippines must be very abundant with this energy but nowadays. Some of the agricultural lands are converting into industrial lands housing and subdivisions

    Hydrogen is also a type of renewable energy. It is abundant because it can also be found in many organic compounds as well as water. Hydrogen is considered to be the most abundant element on the earth. But hydrogen doesn’t occur naturally as a gas. As always, it is combined with other element, such as oxygen to make water. And once hydrogen is seperated from other element it is converted into electricity or can be lourned as a fuels

   Sun’s heat also drives the wind, whose energy is captured with wind turbine. The wind and sun’s heat cause water evaporate. And when this water vapor turns into rain or snow then flows downhill into rivers or streams its energy can be captured using hydroelectric power. And this is used to generate electicity

    But not all renewable energy resources come from the sun. unlike the solar energy and bioenergy, geothermal energy taps the earth’s internal heat for different uses. It includes the electric power production and the heating and cooling the buildings. The gravitational pull of the moon and the sun upon the earth causes the energy of the oceans tides

   And lastly the ocean energy. Well in fact ocean energy comes from a number os sources. In addition to tidal energy. There’s the energy of the oceans waves, which are driven by both the tides and the winds. The sun also has a contribution. It warms the surfaces of the ocean more than the ocean depths, which creats the tempreture a difference that can be used as an energy sourcr. All these forms of ocean energy can be used to produced electricity and the Philippines is very important when it comes to this energy because we all know that Philippines is sorrounded by water

      See? Philippines is very abundant to renewable energy because there are lots of energy resources at the place. But as you notice, there are still parts ao the country that has no electricity. It is because the wrong of the energy resouces.
