The emphasis on harnessing energy forms that replace the earth’s depleting natural resources has become more urgent in recent years, driven by concerns over energy security, escalating oil prices and climate change.
The focus is firmly on renewable energy forms that naturally replenish: wind (onshore and offshore), hydro, wave, tidal, geothermal, solar and biomass, and because they are sustainable, these desirable commodities have triggered a fast-developing industry sector.
By increasing our use of renewable energy and conserving our finite supply of fossil fuels, we help protect the environment and create opportunities for economic growth.
