The search for alternative sources of energy has led in various
directions. Many communities are burning garbage and other
biological waste products to produce electricity Converting waste
products to gases or oil is also an efficient way to dispose of wastes.
Experimental work is being done to derive synthetic fuels from coal,
oil shale, and coal tars. But to date, that process has proven expensive.
Other experiments are underway to harness power with giant windmills.
Geothermal power is also being tested. Some experts expect utility
companies to revive hydroelectric power derived from streams and
rivers. Fifty years ago hydroelectric power provided one third of the
electricity used in the United States, but to day it supplies only 4
percent. The oceans are another potential source of energy. Scientists
are studying ways to convert the energy of ocean currents, tides, and
waves to electricity. Experiments are also underway to make use of
temperature differences in ocean water to produce energy.
