Understanding Alternative Energy Growth Trends
Industry Definition of Alternative Energy
• Broadly defined by technologies that reduce or eliminate the environmental impact of primary energy production, energy consumption and electricity generation
• Production of alternative energy equipment, their operation and use in creating electricity or clean fuels, and R and D leading to breakthroughs in alternative energy comprise the bulk of the industry
Newest industry to attract investors and economic developers worldwide.
