Nuclear fusion should generate less radioactive waste. Solar Energy Top of Page Scientists are constantly trying to develop other renewable forms of energy such as solar energy. Solar energy uses solar panels to capture energy from the Sun's rays and convert it into electricity. Solar energy generates only a very small part of the energy we consume. Wind Energy Top of Page Wind generators are another form of renewable energy.
Wind generators use large turbines that look like the propeller of an airplane.
Strong winds blowing over the blades causes them to rotate creating energy which is converted into electricity.
