| Summary: | Our world has been relying on non-renewable energy based on fossil fuels and coal
until these energy sources are depleting day by day and giving impact to the
environment. To overcome this environmental impact, governments have started to
explore renewable energy sources for example solar, biomass, wind and hydro power.
Each of this source has their own way to generate electricity. Wind energy is one of
the highest power generation resources then hydro takes over as large portion of the
world is water. Dam and turbine application had been used to produce electricity
using hydro but the power does not support the rural areas because the application is
large and need a huge water resource. Savonius Turbine is proposed because it can
generate electricity using the low velocity river flow and less construction cost. |
