Growing human population requires an increase in energy production that will satisfy the daily needs and demands.
Conventional energy sources are finite, and as such they are exhaustible which implies that, man requires an alternative sources
of energy that are inexhaustible and clean. Renewable or alternative energy source is a term used for any energy source that is
an alternative to fossil fuel i.e. electricity or heat generated from solar, hydro, wind, geothermal, biomass or biogas energy.
These energy sources are considered to be clean. Despite the fact that renewable energy sources are assumed to be clean, they
pose a significant risk to the environment and well-being of the populace. Pending on the source and the technique use for
harnessing, these energies may affect the environment at different stage of their life cycle.
