What is new energy?

New energy (NE): also known as unconventional energy. Refers to various forms of energy other than traditional energy. Refers to the energy that has just been developed or actively studied and needs to be popularized, such as solar energy, geothermal energy, wind energy, ocean energy, biomass energy, nuclear fusion energy and so on.

198 1 year, the United Nations Conference on New and Renewable Energy held by the United Nations defined new energy as: modern utilization of traditional renewable energy based on new technologies and new materials, inexhaustible.

Recycling renewable energy replaces fossil energy with limited resources and pollution to the environment, focusing on the development of solar energy, wind energy, biomass energy, tidal energy, geothermal energy, hydrogen energy and nuclear energy (atomic energy).

New energy generally refers to renewable energy developed and utilized on the basis of new technologies, including solar energy, biomass energy, wind energy, geothermal energy, wave energy, ocean current energy and tidal energy, as well as the thermal cycle between the ocean surface and the deep layer.

In addition, there are hydrogen energy, biogas, alcohol, methanol and so on. The widely used energy sources such as coal, oil, natural gas and water are called conventional energy sources. With the limitation of conventional energy and the increasingly prominent environmental problems, more and more countries pay attention to new energy sources with environmental protection and renewable characteristics.

The new energy sources that can form industries in China mainly include hydropower (mainly small hydropower stations), wind energy, biomass energy, solar energy and geothermal energy. , is a clean energy that can be recycled.

Developing new energy industry is not only an effective supplementary means to the whole energy supply system, but also an important measure for environmental governance and ecological protection, and the ultimate energy choice to meet the sustainable development needs of human society.
