Wind energy is a very hot topic these days - wind turbines seem to be growing like mushrooms, and wind farms are popping up everywhere.

Wind powered devices have been around for a long time - Dutch-style wind mills come to mind.

Hydro-electric generation has been around long before renewable energy was considered to be an important issue. It is capable of producing vast amounts of energy, and is endlessly renewable.

Here is a list of some methods for creating renewable energy:

• Wind energy
• Hydro-electric energy
• Biogas
• Solar energy
• Wave energy

Separate articles briefly summarize each type of energy source.
