Due to harmful emissions from power plants which use fossil fuels, worldwide efforts are being made to transition to green energy sources. The most prominent ways of green energy generating are wind power plants, hydroelectric power plants, solar power plants and nuclear power plants. There are also hopes of developing and integrating hydrogen power systems. Each of these presents specific challenges, be it intermittency, low power density or unresolved environmental impacts.
With the fast development of green energy power plants, reducing costs of green power production, the generally growing awareness of global warming, as well as the signing of the Paris Agreement on climate changes in 2015, the quantity of electricity produced by those systems has been steadily rising and there is reason to believe that green energy production growth will continue in the future, too.
Wind power and solar power appear to be the most suitable green power generating systems.
