Renewable energy

Renewable sources are often associated with green energy and clean energy, but there are some subtle differences between these three energy types. Where renewable sources are those that are recyclable, clean energy are those that do not release pollutants like carbon dioxide, and green energy is that which comes from natural sources. While there is often cross-over between these energy types, not all types of renewable energy are actually fully clean or green. For example, some hydroelectric sources can actually damage natural habitats and cause deforestation.

Clean Energy

Clean energy is energy that comes from renewable, zero emission sources that do not pollute the atmosphere when used, as well as energy saved by energy efficiency measures.

There is a degree of crossover between clean energy and green or renewable energy sources, but they are not exactly the same. In order to understand the difference it is worth understanding what it actually means.

Green Energy

Green energy is any energy type that is generated from natural resources, such as sunlight, wind or water. It often comes from renewable energy sources although there are some differences between renewable and green energy.

The key with these energy resources are that they don’t harm the environment through factors such as releasing greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.

Solar system marketing & installation

Solar energy is heat and radiant light from the Sun that can be harnessed with technologies such as solar power (which is used to generate electricity) and solar thermal energy (which is used for applications such as water heating).

As a renewable and clean energy resource, solar can be used as a replacement for fossil fuels, producing heat, creating chemical reactions and generating electricity. Solar energy technology can be built flexibly at scale and allows the energy that is collected to be stored for later use.

Oil and gas marketing and distribution

Marketing is the wholesale and retail distribution of refined petroleum products to business, industry, government, and public consumers. Generally crude oil and petroleum products flow to the markets that provide the highest value to the supplier, which usually means the nearest market first because of lower transportation cost and higher net revenue for the supplier. In practice, however, the trade flow may not follow this pattern due to other factors, such as refining configurations, product demand mix, and product quality specifications.
