Renewable energy is energy produced from sources that do not deplete or can be replenished within a human¡¯s life time. The most common examples include wind, solar, geothermal, biomass, and hydropower (main source of electricity for Ghana). This is in contrast to non-renewable sources such as fossil fuels. Renewable energy systems are a major topic when discussing the globe's energy future because our survival depends on it. While renewable energy systems are better for the environment and produce less emissions than conventional energy sources (like coal, petroleum, natural gas and nuclear energy), many of these sources still face difficulties in being deployed at a large scale including, but not limited to, technological barriers, high start-up capital costs, and intermittency challenge. It is important to note that the terms ¡®renewable energy¡¯, ¡®green energy¡¯ and ¡®clean energy¡¯ are not interchangeable in all cases; for example, a ¡®clean¡¯ coal plant is simply a coal plant with emissions reduction technology. The coal plant itself is still not a ¡®renewable energy¡¯ source. ¡®Green energy¡¯ is a subset of renewable energy, which boasts low or zero emissions and low environmental impacts to systems such as land and water. I was therefore happy when i came across the government of Ghana's commitment to promote Renewable Energy which can be read up on http://www.energycom.gov.gh/renewables/promoting-renewable-energy image src: forbes.com |

Hello Justice
Despite the huge potential of renewable energy, it is true that there are pretty much difficulties in implementing it. But I believe those difficulties can be overcome by the continuous research happening all over the world.
In addition to that, thank you for the clear definition of the terminologies. They seem to mean the same, but they have clear differences.
Thank you for the great report.

Hey Justice!
It's Lisa your mentor:)
Good to see you back again!
Renewable energy is definitely facing some challenges and it is our task to overcome these barriers.
We cannot easily give up on them because they are the ones who can guarantee sustainable, clean development for our future generations and us today.
I am very amazed at how Ghana is contributing in this agenda, I think it's always great that the states are putting efforts to promote environmentally friendly development methods even though it might take them more time and finance.
Thanks for your contributions to tuna community.
Keep up the good work:)
