Wind farms have triumphed across the planet as a renewable energy source for homes and organizations.

EcoLocker.co.uk provides information about renewable energy sources. Visit us, search & compare installers, research technologies & find renewable products.

Solar panels are the most mainstream manifestation of renewable energy generation available in today's market. You can utilize them to produce heat, power, and indoor and outside light.

The UK announced a £7bn package in the 2014 budget to reduce energy costs for British manufacturers and households by 2019, and GDF Suez launched the Sohar 2 and Barka 3 gas-fired combined cycle gas turbines (CCGT) plants in Oman.

The proposed Pentland Firth tidal power plant will be the biggest tidal turbine array in Europe. The project, proposed by MeyGen, a subsidiary of Atlantis Resources, will be located in the Inner Sound of the Pentland Firth, between mainland Scotland and Orkney.

Now lessons learned from the ocean's largest mammals has inspired United States Naval Academy researchers to tackle one of the serious challenges of this technology: the low velocity associated with many tidal flows and the difficulty of extracting useful energy from low speed flows using current designs. They will present their findings at the American Physical Society's Division of Fluid Dynamics (DFD) meeting in Long Beach, CA.

From concentrated solar power to floating wind turbines and from printable organic solar cells to biomass gasification, power-technology.com picks six of the most promising new green power technologies. Concentrating solar power technology Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) technology involving the use of mirrors to focus sunlight onto a receiver that captures and converts the solar energy into heat for electricity generation has been in use since 1980s.

A host of new technologies have been inspired by the natural world, as designers increasingly look to biomimicry when to creating new ideas for wind turbines, solar cells and hydropower. So could nature hold the answer to unlocking renewable energy?
