Abstract
The article discusses prospective ways of accumulating energy generated using the renewable energy sources. The efficiency of using different types of energy storage devices is assessed. The tendency of gradual decrease of coal consumption all over the world is noted, which is an indication of transition to cleaner types of energy sources. The main advantages and disadvantages are reviewed for such energy sources as minerals, solar, wind, geothermal and hydro power, biomass as well as the wave and tidal energy. The authors suggest to enhance environmentally friendly processes of using the excessive electrical energy into production of hydrogen or methanol, with their subsequent use in fuel cells for power generation. Such solutions can maximise the efficiency of currently existing power plants.
Keywords
