Renewable Energy means utilizing alternative natural resources such as sunlight, wind, tides and heating and cooling that can be achieved through the use of a Geothermal heat pump, which are naturally replenished that will conserve fossil fuels for future generations using Carbon Capture and Storage as noted at point I. of Section 2, and considered at point I. of Section 3. 

Renewable energy technologies range from solar power, wind power, and hydroelectricity to biomass and biofuels for transportation.  About 13% of primary energy comes from renewables, with most of this coming from traditional biomass like wood-burning.  Hydropower is the next largest source, providing 2-3%, and modern technologies like geothermal, wind, solar, and marine energy together produce less than 1% of total world energy demand. The technical potential for their use is very large, exceeding all other readily available sources.  Wind power has a worldwide installed capacity of 74,223 MW and is widely used in several European countries and the USA.  The manufacturing output of the solar cells or solar photovoltaic arrays to convert light from the sun directly into electricity industry reached more than 2,000 MW per year in 2006, and photovoltaic plants are popular in Germany.  Solar thermal power stations operate in the USA and Spain, and the largest of these is the 354 MW SEGS power plant in the Mojave Desert.   The world's largest geothermal power installation is The Geysers in California, with a rated capacity of 750 MW.   Brazil has one of the largest renewable energy programs in the world, involving production of ethanol fuel from sugar cane, and ethanol now provides 18% of Brazil's automotive fuel.  Ethanol fuel is also widely available in the USA.
