In Regards to Planning Our Energy Production for the Future

Energy demands lately got very high, and it is unlikely that we can cover it only with energy that comes from burning fossil fuels. We must think about other means of providing energy from renewable sources like water, wind, sun and even waves. Hydro plants doesn’t require any resource beside water which is renewable, but tend to drastically change the local geography and wildlife, and that is the reason why they are not considered as pure renewable energy. Then there's the solar panel - solar panels are completely free for operation, but their initial cost for installing is somewhat high. But, if we take in consideration the gain in the next couple of years, we can easily get our investment back, and after that enjoy the free energy. Wind turbines are also completely free for usage, although maybe even more expensive for initial placement. They require higher elevated terrains, but provide much more energy than solar panels.
