Geothermal energy cuts out oil usage and is environmental friendly its current usage is heating and cooling it helps to provide savings but is $10,000 to $30,000 for installation it last longer than conventional heating and cooling systems it works well in all climate and requires low maintenance but its con is space heating represents 15% of total electricity.

In summer 2023, Rijnstate hospital in Elst, Netherlands, opened a campus powered by over 1,300 solar panels that generate hydrogen through electrolysis for backup energy, similar to Viamed San José Hospital in Spain. Despite challenges like efficiency, cost, and transportation, advancements in electrolyzer technology, such as Hysata's 95% efficiency, could make green hydrogen more affordable. While hydrogen production still relies on fossil fuels, new methods like Sparc Hydrogen’s photocatalytic water splitting show promise. Overall, hydrogen may not solve all energy issues but holds potential for local energy systems.

The Future of Solid State Wind Energy - No More Blades

# data[].attributes.body
The current usage of nuclear energy is about 10% of the worlds energy, but by 2035, Nuclear energy could play a crucial role in achieving net-zero emissions by providing a low-carbon alternative to fossil fuels. As well as becoming a more reliable source.

Pros can be that Nuclear power plants emit minimal greenhouse gases during operation, contributing to climate change mitigation. A small power plant can do way more than huge solar panels or big wind turbines. Cons although is nuclear waste, and on rarity, very bad accidents can happen.

The initial cost of a plant is very expensive, but relatively low maintenance and cost after this.

Nuclear power plants have high capacity factors, meaning they produce energy consistently and are less affected by weather conditions compared to renewables.

Residential wind energy is not accessible. Current wind turbines require space that cannot be found in homes but land space can be found in rural areas. Current turbines need calm winds to operate as more chaotic winds cause them to shut down and fall apart. These finds can be found in suburban, residential, and urban areas. Wind speeds in these areas are 3-5 m/s or 6-12 mph. These speeds are not enough to mark current wind energy cost effective. Current wind turbines have to be built 10 meters above the surface to reach the wind currents and to avoid turbulence from objects above. Two companies have taken an alternative. Harmony makes savonius styled turbines. These can take chaotic winds and not shut down. Unlike current turbines, savonius turbines can be placed together which amplify its power. Aeromine, the other company, is experimenting by putting windmills on top of roofs. While these windmills are fairly new,they have the potential in the market.

How We Solved The Home Wind Turbine Problem

# data[].attributes.body
Why Does The US Suck at Wind? The U.S. wind turbine industry kinda blows. The past few years haven’t been great for turbines in the States. 2023 was particularly nasty. The weather got us off to a bad start, offshore wind saw basically no progress whatsoever, clocking in at zero installations, and that’s all against a backdrop of multiple high-profile accidents and escalating public animosity. Wind energy is nowhere near the level of deployment we’ve seen with solar. But how do these problems fit into a larger context? Are they temporary or to be expected? And where are the rays of hope?

Solar panels are a good alternative for energy the problem is they excess heat which can be a big problem for solar panels. It can drag down its efficiency and shorten life span. So keeping it from overheating people combined a solar panel and a heat pump. This will keep the panels cooler and help save money. The problem is how much they cost to install and how much to repair if they were to be damaged. They can cost between $2000-$6000 depending on the model. Another problem is that they depend on the weather, the sun wont always be out and it could be cold so that we can be a problem. This can cause inefficient energy use and operational time. But other than these problems solar energy is a good alternative instead of using fossil fuels.

Why Hybrid Solar Heat Pumps are the Future of Home Energy

# data[].attributes.body
In terms of environmental impact, solar power generation can have a much better impact than fossil fuels because it produces less carbon dioxide emissions.

It may be difficult to install because of the high initial cost, but once installed, you can generate electricity using solar power without paying money.

There is an intermittent problem where the output can fluctuate depending on natural conditions.

The advantages are environmental friendliness and sustainability, and the disadvantages are high initial investment costs and intermittency.

Currently, the amount of use is increasing, but it is still limited, and in the future, solar power will be adopted more through more advanced technology.

How the Next Big Solar Panel Tech is Already Here

# data[].attributes.body
Since 2023 advancements in solar panel technology continue to enhance their efficiency, affordability, and its overall performance. They have higher efficiently and they are achieving higher efficient rates with models reaching over 23%. They can convert to a large percentage of sunlight to electricity.They are integrated with energy storage solutions allowing users to store excess energy generated during the day for use at night or during low production periods.Newer solar panels can include smart features that optimize energy production, monitor performance, and communicate with other energy systems for better management. The cost has also decreased over the decade and new manufacturing techniques continue to drive prices down and makes solar energy more accessible to homeowners and businesses alike.

Environmental impacts: Hydrogen fuel will leave a fuel panacea that will not live to it's promise. It is pretty clean for the environment.

Cost: It is currently expensive.

Reliability: It is very reliable but there is not mass production of it yet.

Pros/Cons: There is no production of it yet. Not on the market. It is a clean fuel source with minimum emissions.

Current usage vs future potential: There is some usage today in factories but soon it will be used a lot once they can patch up some problems.

How a Hydrogen Breakthrough is Closer Than Ever

Wind power works well but it's also not 100% perfect. Since the blades on wind turbines are massive and take up alot of space and air power meaning they'd have to be out in rural areas where there is lots of land and nothing around. Wind turbines also kill lots of animals, the major one is birds, killing up to 140000-500000 birds a year alone in the U.S. SO making a smaller and more accessible wind turbine would be better like the FREYA which is 1.5 meters high, can withstand speeds up to 130 mph and generates 600 watts. It costs about 3,300 to 4180 dollars. And it's more reliable since you can have it around your homes and stuff to be more easily able to fix if needed and they don't take up much space.

Due to its size they can be installed just about anywhere in your backyard to thousands in the cities, but what is really interesting is the design. No matter what direction where the wind is coming from this will always rotate in the same direction making it less wind dependent bidirectionally wise. This will benefit many families near / in / far from society. I ´ ve seen prices from a minimum of 500$-5000$.

Pros: cost less than traditional turbines / simplifying installation

Cons: has a lower efficiency/ high cost

Current usage: 1.3 billion worldwide

Future usage: 1.3 billion < x

Wind turbines (wind energy) create up to 9% of the worlds energy which is a significant difference in growth. Wind energy is effective and a renewable resource, but it isn't very common. Wind turbines are huge and the blades could cause possible damage to the environment if we aren't careful. A new invention that hasn't yet been released can sit on your roof. It creates less noise and doesn't have huge blades . The new wind power invention also creates more energy.

Manufacturers with more sustainable materials, instead of lithium these batteries use a carbon-rich polymer which is made of 25% wood, called Lignode. By swapping graphite with a local bio-carbon.

Pros: Better for the environment, needs less materials

Cons: more trees would be chopped down

Solar power works by converting energy from the sun into power. There are two forms of energy generated from the sun for our use – electricity and heat. Both are generated through the use of solar panels, which range in size from residential rooftops to 'solar farms' stretching over acres of rural land.
