More Renewable Energy

Energy from biomass and household use of solar energy can effectively be implemented at a more local level. Biomass today generates about 468 MW.

Solar power for purposes of cooking and drying has been used for many years in our country.

The Way to a New Tomorrow

Three approaches to solution Increase supply (Scientists/Technicians/Managers) Reduce demand (Economists / Policy makers) Alternative sources (Scientists and Economists)

Conclusion

The current Energy crises in whole world is the mostbad and horrible problem .There should be the proper use of renewable sources of energy so that
