Low-carbon power comes from processes or technologies that, at the point of generation, release less carbon dioxide than the traditional means of power generation. It includes zero carbon power generation sources, such as wind power, solar power, geothermal power and, including fuel preparation and decommissioning, nuclear power, as well as sources with slightly lower-level emissions than Coal, such as natural gas. These power-generation techniques emit significantly less carbon dioxide than a traditional fossil fuel power plant.

Famous quotes containing the word power:
“Oh, London is a mans town, theres power in the air;
And Paris is a womans town, with flowers in her hair;
And its sweet to dream in Venice, and its great to study Rome;
But when it comes to living, there is no place like home.”
—Henry Van Dyke (18521933)
