Biofuels

There is simply not enough agricultural land in the world to replace fossil fuels with biofuels. We will need to use them efficiently, as well as using other sources of power.

Solar Thermal

Hot water heating accounts for about 25% of domestic energy use.  In the Welsh climate solar energy can be used to heat water for about 8 months of the year. More...

Wind Power

A commercial wind farm produces only 8g of carbon dioxide per kWh. In a good location a wind turbine will have produced the equivalent amount of energy used in its construction in just 3 months. More..

Fossil Fuel

The energy in fossil fuels comes from the sun.  The energy stored in fossil fuels was built up over millions of years.  To replace this amount of energy by capturing it from the sun in plants and turning them into biofuels would require a huge amount of land.  We need this land to produce food.
