Abstract

Energy resources are playing important role in development countries. Also energy prices are growing up. Most of the present demand in the world is met by fossil and nuclear power plants. A small part is met by renewable energy technologies, such as the wind, solar, biomass, geothermal and the ocean. Among the renewable power sources, wind and solar have experienced a remarkably rapid growth in the past 20 years. Renewal energy is playing an important role in developing countries also in isolated areas where energy costs are higher than urban places. Also combination between water solar and wind energy is an important issue, but it strongly depends from geographical position.
