ENERGY
Demand for energy is most pronounced in growth markets where macro drivers, such as favourable demographics, acute underinvestment, rising middle class and urbanisation have created a strong need for private capital. Harnessing sustainable energy in developing countries helps fuel economic growth and support its growing population. Renewable energy technologies are playing a great role in the countries’ energy mix. By providing a reliable and clean energy, it helps Governments and communities in achieving self-sustainment and social empowerment.
Our goal is to bring electricity to as many developing countries as possible, encourage innovation and drive economic growth through renewable energy, such as solar, wind and hydro power.
By using sustainable energy, we are increasing access to affordable, sustainable and reliable electricity supply to cities, towns and rural areas.
WHAT IS SUSTAINABLE ENERGY?
Sustainable energy is a form of energy that meets our current demand of energy without putting the sources in danger of getting expired or depleted. Instead we can use them over and over again. All renewable energy sources, such as solar, wind, geothermal, hydropower and ocean energy are sustainable and cause no harm to the environment.
There are many forms of sustainable energy sources that can be incorporated by countries around the world to stop the use of fossil fuels. Fossil fuels, such as coal, oil and natural gas, are limited, they cause immense pollution by releasing harmful gases and are not available everywhere on earth. This energy is replenishable and helps countries to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
SOLAR ENERGY
The sun is the most plentiful source of energy on the entire globe as the earth intercepts 173 trillion terawatts of solar power. It provides an unlimited, steady supply through time. In addition, it prevents carbon emissions, helps diversify power generation mix, reduces dependence on fossil fuels and can increase off-grid energy access.
Solar energy is the energy that is produced by the sun in the form of heat and light. As it is available in plenty and it is free, it makes it one of the most important non-conventional sources of energy.
Solar energy is a reliable, low-carbon and increasingly competitive solution. The segment is developing rapidly as a result of improved technologies and lower generating costs.
Two main ways to harness the energy are:
1) Production of electricity
This technique utilises Solar Photovoltaic (PV) devices or solar cells that convert the sun’s energy into electricity. PV devices produce electricity from the sunlight through an electronic process that naturally occurs in particular material types knows as semiconductors.
This form of energy is often used in locations that are not connected to the electricity grid.
2) Solar collector devices
A solar thermal collector harnesses heat by absorbing the sun rays. The energy can then be stored in batteries for future use.
WIND AND HYDRO ENERGY
WIND
Wing energy is available naturally and can be tapped to produce vast amounts of power by investing in power grids and windmills.
HYDRO
Hydro-power is the process of harnessing the kinetic energy from moving water to produce power. This type of sustainable energy is currently powering most parts of the world.
