WHAT IS RENEWABLE ENERGY TECHNOLOGIES?

Renewable Energy Technologies is one of the category fall under Green Technologies. Which it can obtained from natural resources that can be constantly replenished like: BioEnergy, Geothermal Energy, Hydro-power, Ocean Energy, Solar Energy, and Wind Energy. With applying Renewable Energy Technologies, we hope it could reduce the environmentally damaging.

What is Renewable Energy Technologies?

As per our understanding, most renewable energy resources is comes either direct or indirectly from the sun. Sunlight, or we so called "Solar Energy", it can be used for direct heating or lighting homes and buildings. Solar Energy could be use for generate electricity, water heating, solar cooling and a variety of commercial industrial uses.

The sun's heat also drives the winds, Winds Energy, is captured with wind turbines. Then, the winds and the sun's heat cause water to evaporate. When this water vapor turns into rain or snow and flows downhill into rivers or streams, its energy can be captured using hydroelectric power.

Along with the rain and snow, sunlight causes plants to grow. The organic matter that makes up those plants is known as BioEnergy. Bio-Energy can be used to produce electricity, transportation fuels, or chemicals. The use of biomass for any of these purposes is called bioenergy.

Hydrogen also can be found in many organic compounds, as well as water. It's the most abundant element on the Earth. But it doesn't occur naturally as a gas. It's always combined with other elements, such as with oxygen to make water. Once separated from another element, hydrogen can be burned as a fuel or converted into electricity.

Not all renewable energy resources come from the sun. Geothermal energy taps the Earth's internal heat for a variety of uses, including electric power production, and the heating and cooling of buildings. And the energy of the ocean's tides come from the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun upon the Earth.

In fact, ocean energy comes from a number of sources. In addition to tidal energy, there's the energy of the ocean's waves, which are driven by both the tides and the winds. The sun also warms the surface of the ocean more than the ocean depths, creating a temperature difference that can be used as an energy source. All these forms of ocean energy can be used to produce electricity.

Renewable Energy Technologies - SIRIM Malaysia

Malaysia as one of the country's leading energy and environmental technology research institutes, we welcomed the industrial and organizations in Malaysia to apply renewable energy technologies into their businesses. SIRIM Malaysia conducts strategic research and development of innovative technologies that support national economic growth by finding ways to mitigate climate change and ensure a clean environment. SIRIM is here ready to assist you, provide training, and services for environmental friendly development.

THE IMPORTANCE OF GREEN TECHNOLOGY

Today, more and more organizations, industries, and regulatory bodies are look seriously about the Green Technology, as it is become imperative today. Environmental technologies uses non-polluting practices to produce things and materials which are non toxic. Green technology are environment friendly rather than harm.

By applying these environmental technologies one can make their effort to help the environmental heal. Green technology isn't that tough as we thought, some easy environmentally friendly solutions are there still for everybody to follow.

"Developing a planned community, making less packaging for frozen foods, using Environmental friendly machines are just a few examples. One can go out and seek products that support green technology."

We should realized, for centuries we have been harm to our mother earth, especially in the late 80's. and today, it is our responsibilities to march a step ahead to save the environment and make our earth free from any harm or danger. We should understand, destroying the environment, can lead us into situations which can be irreversible.

Using environmental technologies, could reduce the usage of fossil fuel, which is very harmful and destroy to our environment. The scientist proven that, the energy production from green technology will be higher than fossil fuel sources of energy like oil, gas in the future.

Some other countries has foreseen the earths' energy resources depleting fast, in the next 20 years, we have to rely on alternative sources of energy. The sooner we realize the importance of using environmental technologies, the better it will be for our planet and environment. Therefore, the environmental technologies is not just important to us, but mandatory too in the coming years, and expected green technology will extend into more areas, to creating and produce products that are safer and more beneficiary to the environment.

The government of various countries are recognizing the need for using green technology. In Malaysia, as a leading center of environment technology research center, SIRIM (Standards & Industrial Research Institute of Malaysia) is ready to do its part to answer tomorrow's challenges today. SIRIM conducts strategic research and development of innovative technologies that support national economic growth by finding ways to mitigate climate change and ensure a clean environment. SIRIM's renewable energy and environmental protection services are accepted globally.

SIRIM encourage all the organizations, industries, and regulatory bodies move towards to Green Technology, and constantly finding new ways to better understand and mitigate the impact of industry on our environment.
