Abstract
The development of societies depends now more than ever on reliable energy supplies. We are in the century in which there will be a transition from the dominance of non-renewable fossil flues to low carbon societies that will be based on the use of renewable energy sources. Nevertheless, it is expected that non-renewable sources will remain significant energy carriers in the coming decades. In this chapter, natural energy sources as primary energy sources are presented. The chapter starts with a presentation of solar, tidal, and geothermal energy sources, followed by a presentation of the energy and environmental properties of renewable and non-renewable fuels. The chapter ends with descriptions of technologies that are used for on-site, near-by, and distant production of electricity.
