Step towards sustainable energy: practices and approaches

Abstract

– Nowadays, the study of alternative and sustainable sources is among one of the most important factors of engineering sciences. Sustainable sources like solar, wind, hydro and tidal could became an alternative to these fossil fuels which has been extensively used from past decades. The need of replacing fossil fuels arises in the light of economic crises and also more and more stringent environmental constraints. There is a direct relationship between the energy demand and environment. For a continuous development; every society must ideally take steps to minimize the impact cause on environment by harmful ways of energy development in order to fulfill their own needs. However, the major drawback with it, is that, every energy resource available lead to some kind of environmental impact. In this case, it is reasonable to suggest some resources over others which gives enough efficiency while minimizing environmental impact i.e. to get the same product by utilizing less resources and generating minimum pollution; higher efficiency can be achieved. As adopting sustainable energy resources, as a source of generating electricity for our daily life is a long-term phenomenon that is it takes time, planning and investment too. A forthcoming solution of this is using the energy we are already generating ‘Efficiently’. Through sustainable energy management techniques, we can not only use energy efficiently, precisely and economically, but by adopting this techniques in an organization we could evaluate the effect of rapid price fluctuation on its organizations operations in order to sustain in volatile market. This paper discusses all the modern time approaches and practices to harness energy efficiently and effectively backed with real world case study.
