Green energy is derived from renewable energy sources including solar power and wind and is increasingly being used over energy gained from the burning of fossil fuels. The following two sources of renewable resources are currently being investigated for use as viable energy sources:
1. Biomass - A source of organic matter derived from plants and organisms that were once alive, biomass produces energy when it is burned. As it decomposes, it also produces energy in the form of methane gas that can be collected. At present, only 5 percent of the energy used in America is derived from biomass since the technology needed to use biomass in place of fossil fuels is not widespread yet.
2. Hydrogen - A more recently developed source of energy, hydrogen is a natural gas that has applications for heating buildings and powering cars. Once liquified, hydrogen is contained in large tanks and then passed into solid fuel cells that contain and electrolyte fluid. When the hydrogen and electrolyte fluid mix, a charge is produced and subsequently stored in a battery for later use as an energy source. Using hydrogen is costly, which is why it is not currently used widely.
