renewable energy By Manuel Armindo PORTUGAL
disadvantages • Very difficult to get/capture (I don’t know when… • Very difficult to manage (very high energy in small periods
Meanwhile, in Portugal… • We are working to get a better world • And also reduce the energy independence…
Our renewal energy • Water (rivers) • Wind • Sun • Geothermal • Waste/disposables • Waves Translated by GOOGLE
Rivers (Dams) • We call it “white gold” (opposite to “black gold” from petroleum)
Rosário - Almodovar Ferreira do Alentejo
AZORES Pico Vermelho (10MW, 72GWh/year)
41% of the electrical energy in the island, is from this two power plants!!!
Waste/disposables • Burning the remains from woods (leaves and others) • Burning the remains from the paper industry (shells from trees) • Burning waste/garbage from our houses • Disposables from pigs industry (faeces)or lanfills, by decomposing in to methane and burning this gas.
Remains from woods (MORTÁGUA) 9 MW (63 GWh / year)
Urban waste (LIPOR II – MAIA) 26MW (169MWh (year)
Methane from faeses (ABRANTES) 140kW (700 MWh/year)
Methane from lanfills(VILA NOVA DE GAIA) 1MW ( 8GWh/year)
Waves • This was experimental in our country • All of them don’t work now, they are broken because the sea is very violent and ruthless
