What is the ultimate source of energy for biomass, wind, and ocean thermal energy?
Answer (2)
Nuclear energy, my dear. It's only bad for social stuff because of nuclear wars and stuff but nuclear power itself is verypowerfull, doesn't use too much resources and it has no CO2 or anything. It doesn't need millions of installations (with all their own waste) like wind energy.
The ultimate source of energy for biomass, wind, and ocean thermal energy is sunlight. Biomass derives its energy from photosynthesis in plants, wind energy is created from temperature differences in air caused by solar heating, and ocean thermal energy utilizes the temperature gradient in ocean waters heated by the sun. Therefore, all these renewable energy forms rely on solar energy as their primary source.
