What Future Holds For Green Energy
Over all these years, I have been giving priority to incorporating Green Energy practices with the work our organization does. Lately, I have been researching tremendously on the future of Green Energy because I believe this how a real growth looks like: Moving ahead with a sustainable world. 
As the world walks on the path of growth and progress, and explores new avenues of Science and Technology, we as a collective society, are becoming increasingly aware of sustainability and the role that Green Energy plays in it. By 2024, 33% of the world's electricity is forecasted to be generated via Green Energy which is about 1200 GW! 
The future sounds exciting. 
Let's Dive Deeper Into Solar Energy!
Solar energy’s convenience in terms of its reliability is no surprise for anyone. Residential solar power is expected to grow from 58 GW to 142 GW by 2024. Moreover, once the solar panels are installed the operational costs are way less as compared to the other forms of generating energy. In the near future, solar facilities will continue reducing their variability rates by storing electricity during the day and running at night. 
Here’s an Quick Insight of the Rise of Geothermal Capacity
Geothermal energy ensures a reliable and strategic way of integrating itself into all kinds of electrical power generation systems. To generate geothermal energy, water is drawn from the underground reservoirs under high pressure when the water reaches the surface, the pressure is dropped, which causes the water to turn into steam. The steam spins a turbine, which is connected to a generator that produces electricity. The awesome part about Geothermal Energy is that the steam in the process is cooled off and condensed into water again which is pumped back into the earth, ready for another reuse. Geothermal capacity is projected to grow by 28% reaching 18 GW by 2024 proving to be a promising way of energy production. 
How Can We Leverage The Wind Energy For A Hopeful Future?
The wonderful part about Wind Energy is that not only wind is an inexhaustible source of energy, but it also provides electricity without burning any fuel or polluting the air. Hence leveraging Wind Energy and setting up the right infrastructure to do this is the need of the hour. Moreover, the onshore wind capacity is expected to expand by 57% to 850 GW by 2024. 
Adding to this, extensive research is being carried out by scientists to create airborne wind turbines in which the components are either floated by a gas like helium or use their aerodynamics to stay high in the air, where the wind is stronger. These systems are being considered for offshore use, where it is expensive and difficult to install conventional wind turbines on tall towers. 
All in all, with the variety of innovations and advancements in Wind Energy production, I think the future does look bright!
What Can We Do?
As consumers, we have several opportunities to make an impact by contributing to a sustainable future by adopting Green Energy Solutions. There are alternatives for a greener way of life like energy storage solutions with safe and environment-friendly battery solutions with a greater life span.
