Renewable Energy

Greece Romania Spain

Goal

To explore how Greece, Spain, Romania, and the EU are working towards a greener future

Name some renewable energy ways

Renewable energy

Types of Renewable Energy

  1. Solar Energy: Power from the sun using panels.
  2. Wind Energy: Power from the wind using turbines.
  3. Hydropower: Power from flowing water (rivers and dams).
  4. Geothermal Energy: Heat from inside the Earth.
  5. Biomass: Energy from organic materials (plants and waste).
  6. Ocean Energy: Power from waves and tides.

Geography: The Blueprint for Renewable Energy

A country’s "energy mix" is not random; it is dictated by its natural landscape and climate. Solar Power: Requires high insolation and clear skies. Best for: Sunny plains and low-latitude regions (e.g., Southern Europe). Wind Power: Requires consistent, strong air currents. Best for: Coastal zones, islands, and high mountain ridges. Hydroelectric: Requires high rainfall and elevation drops. Best for: Mountainous terrain with fast-flowing rivers. Geothermal: Requires access to underground heat. Best for: Volcanic areas and tectonic plate boundaries. Ocean Energy: Requires strong tides or waves. Best for: Countries with long, open coastlines.

How do our countries use renewable energy?

Greece

Looking at the Greek islands and mountains, which renewable energy source do you see the most?

Greece – The Land of Sun and Wind Main Sources: Solar Energy (plenty of sunshine) and Wind Energy (strong winds on islands and mountains). National Goal: To have more than 80% of electricity come from renewables by 2030. Challenge: Energy Storage. We need better batteries and systems to store the energy produced when the sun isn't shining or the wind isn't blowing.

Romania

Romania uses its famous Danube river and its windy plains. Which two sources are these?

Romania – The Power of Water and Wind Main Sources: Hydroelectric Power (from rivers like the Danube) and a very fast-growing Wind Energy sector in the Dobrogea region. National Goal: To increase the share of renewables to at least 30.7% of total energy consumption by 2030. Challenge: Modernization. The country needs to upgrade its old power grids to handle the new green energy sources.

Spain

Spain is a European leader in green energy. Can you guess which source provides the most electricity there?

Spain – A Renewable Pioneer Main Sources: A world leader in Wind Power and Solar Energy (both Photovoltaic and Thermal). National Goal: To reach 100% renewable electricity by 2050 and reduce carbon emissions to zero. Challenge: Droughts. Lack of rain often affects their "Hydroelectric" (water) power plants, making them rely more on other sources.

The European Union – Leading the Way

Main Sources: A mix of Wind, Solar, Hydro, and Biomass. European Goal (REPowerEU): To reach a 42.5% renewable energy share across the whole EU by 2030. Challenge: Dependence. Reducing the need for fossil fuels from other countries and making sure all 27 member states work together.

Green School

Let’s think local: If we wanted to transform our school into a 'Green School', which renewable energy sources could we install right here in our building or yard? Do a sketch showing how renewable energy could be used in your school

Solar Energy: Power from the sun using panels.

Wind Energy: Power from the wind using turbines.

Hydropower: Power from flowing water (rivers and dams).

Biomass: Energy from organic materials (plants and waste)

Ocean Energy: Power from waves and tides

Geothermal Energy: Heat from inside the Earth.
