Articles, Energy & Energy Storage

As part of DIRAK, Inc.’s driving mission to provide peace of mind, we are taking a deep look into organizations, industries, and subjects that inspire us, focus on bettering the future, and share our values.

Benefits of Alternative or Renewable Energy

Alternative energy, or renewable energy, can be generated without exhausting or consuming natural resources that are depletable, such as coal and oil.  Instead, it is collected from renewable resources that can replenish, including sunlight, wind, and water.  


Harnessing Solar Energy for Domestic, Commercial and Industrial Use

Solar energy is harnessed from the sun using solar panels and converted into thermal or electrical energy. This energy is most commonly used to provide heating and lighting for domestic, commercial, or industrial use.


Using Turbines to Generate Wind Power

Wind energy is generated by using large turbines that create mechanical power. The mechanical power can then be used for various tasks such as pumping water, or a generator can transform wind energy into electricity.   


Generating Electricity through Hydroelectric Energy

Water energy, or hydroelectric energy, uses the power from tides and waves and the gravitational pull and kinetic energy of falling water to generate electricity. This energy is fed into electrical grids that in turn power homes, organizations, and other infrastructure.
