Renewable Energy
Renewable energy (sources) or RES get their energy from existing flows of energy. These on-going natural processes consist of sunshine, wind, flowing water, biological processes, and geothermal heat flows.
Renewable energy resources may be used directly, or used to create other more convenient forms of energy. Examples of direct use are solar ovens, geothermal heating, and water- and windmills. Examples of indirect use which require energy harvesting are electricity generation through wind turbines or photovoltaic cells, or production of fuels such as ethanol from biomass.
Various types of RES’s consist of:
- Bioenergy
- Fuel Cells
- Geothermal Energy
- Solar Energy
|
- Hydro Power or Water Power
- Wave, Tidal or Ocean Energy
- Wind Energy

Welwind’s current projects focus in the wind energy sector with future renewable energy applications under consideration. Renewable energy is power that comes from renewable resources such as the sun, wind and organic matter. These resources are constantly replenished by nature and are a cleaner source of energy. Welwind’s goal is to add more renewable energy globally, resulting in cleaner air and a more stable energy supply for our future.
