Alternative energy sources

Croatia has significant potential for alternative energy sources, including traditional renewables like biomass and hydroelectricity, as well as newer forms such as solar, wind, and geothermal energy. Biomass, derived from waste, is a clean renewable resource, while hydroelectricity harnesses the power of water. Croatia boasts 2000 solar hours annually and has windmills near Zadar. However, despite this potential, high costs hinder widespread adoption of these alternatives. Additionally, olive oil can serve as a viable biofuel, offering further opportunities for sustainable energy.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Alternative energy sources

  2. Traditional renewable energy sources • Biomasses • Hydroelectricity

  3. Biomasses Biomass is a clean renewable energy resource derived from the waste of various human and natural activities.

  4. Hydroelectricity Hydroelectricity is the term referring to electricity generated by hydropower.

  5. New renewable energy sources • Solar energy • Energy of wind • Geothermal energy

  6. Solar energy Croatia has 2000 solar hours per year.

  7. Energy of wind Wind power is the conversion of wind energy into a useful form of energy.

  8. Geothermal energy Geothermal energy is thermal energy generated and stored in the Earth.

  9. Alternative energy in Croatia • In Croatia there is a big potential for usage of the alternative sources of energy, but it cost too much and we can't afford it. There are just couple alternative power plants. Windmills near Croatian town Zadar.

  10. Olive oil can be used like biofuel
