What Renewable Energy Are You?
Solar

You got solar energy! You are brimming with positive energy and have an abundance of generosity with the people around you, much like the sun's abundant energy that can be maximized using solar energy technology. You offer warmth to everyone you meet and are a nurturer, feeling it is your mission to make people happy.

Even when you can't physically be there for someone, you've taken care that they feel supported and secure. You conserve your energy to be given at a time when it is most needed and don't waste time on unnecessary tasks. Similarly, photovoltaic panels allow the sun to be there for us even when it's not shining. These panels absorb sunlight to be stored and used when it is most needed. And like the sun, you are reliable and love routine. People don't forget about you easily – you are remembered often for your kind actions and hospitality.

You think ahead and are constantly working to improve yourself. You love competition and dominate others at most of the things you do – and others love to watch you succeed. Just like you, solar energy is always on the rise, with global solar energy generation increasing from 0.4 billion kWh to nearly 1.3 trillion kWh from 1990 to 2022 – making it a substantial part of our renewable energy future.
Wind

Congrats! You got me, wind energy!

You have a gentle, yet exciting character. Just like wind energy, which depends on the speed of the wind to turn turbines and create electricity, you flow briskly through life, as you pass through new, complex stages of life with ease. You can be unpredictable at times, similarily to the wind's irregular patterns, yet your perseverance only shows just how resilient and reliable you are long-term. You confront challenges effortlessly, where you are unbound to barriers of life. You are adaptable to anything that comes your way, where you can go along with new directions life takes you.

People may see you as a simple being, but there is more to you. It is your character and impact on people that sticks with individuals once they uncover your true self. Your empathy and consideration for the world around you is inspiring. Wind energy remains one of the most enviornmental-friendly renewable energy source, as there are very low, if any, greenhouse gas emissions. You constantly consider how each action impacts the people and communities surrounding you. Wind energy can be expensive to produce originally with the construction costs, yet the contribution to environmental protection is far worth it. You commit yourself to make a positive impact on the world, no matter the cost.

You are a visionary individual, who always looks towards the future. The onshore wind energy turbines have grown in size by 83% since 1998 and are projected to continue to grow and advance into the future. You help others bridge new pathways, in order to discover new possibilities, just as wind energy does with new technological innovations in renewable energy production. You push beyond the expectations and help others realize their own capabilities in how they can use their strength to help the world.
Geothermal

Congrats you got geothermal energy!

Geothermal energy is a stable, enduring, old soul—an ancient and unwavering force that has quietly supported life on Earth for billions of years. Not easily swayed by weather or seasons, it stands resilient, immune to the whims of the sun and wind.

Geothermal energy is generated by heat stored beneath the Earth’s surface, which can be harnessed to produce electricity or heat buildings. The Earth's core generates immense heat, which radiates outward, creating accessible geothermal resources in the form of hot water or steam. This makes geothermal energy steadfast and reliable, much like someone who remains strong and dependable through life’s ups and downs. While it may take some effort to tap into, once you dig beneath the surface, its warmth and potential have the power to excite and inspire. Geothermal plants often operate with over 90% reliability, meaning they provide consistent energy year-round, unlike intermittent sources like wind or solar power.

Geothermal energy is not flashy like solar or wind power, but its quiet strength speaks volumes. In terms of environmental impact, geothermal energy is one of the cleanest sources, emitting very low levels of greenhouse gases compared to fossil fuels. It represents a person with immense capability and depth, one who doesn’t seek attention but remains solid and powerful in their own right. Those with a personality akin to geothermal energy might enjoy collecting crystals and geodes—reflecting a fascination with the Earth’s hidden treasures and quiet strength. Rooted in humble beginnings deep within the Earth, geothermal energy remains in touch with its origins, offering warmth and reliability.

Geothermal reservoirs can be found naturally in places like Iceland, New Zealand, and parts of the U.S., but advances in technology are making it possible to extract geothermal energy from more locations. Though understated, its connection to sustainability makes it a lasting and eco-conscious force. There is much to learn beneath the surface of this rocky wonder.
Hydroelectric

You got hydroelectric energy!

You have a free spirit, and like to go on your own path, despite what others think. No matter what other people say, you stay true to yourself. Your strong goals can intimidate others, but you don’t let it affect you.

This free spirit is calming and relaxed, and people gravitate towards you. You are very social, and surround yourself with a diverse group of people. You always appreciate different perspectives and opinions, as that can help us be the best version of ourselves.

Hydropower has origins that date back to China during the Han Dynasty between 202 BC and 9 AD. The first hydropower to sell electricity in the United States came in 1880 on the Fox River near Appleton, Wisconsin. This means that you are also very durable and reliable, as you have adapted to the needs of others over a long period of time. You always stick around for those who need you, even when the world is changing so rapidly.This allows you to keep friends for a long period of time and you’re always there for them when they need you. When there are problems, you always are open to going out of your way to help your friends and family.

Hydropower has remained the most prevalent renewable energy source, accounting for more than 50% of renewable electricity production globally. This happened from true authenticity and willingness to help others around you.
Tidal

Your result is Tidal Energy!

Just like the rhythm of the tides, your personality moves with a quiet, steady strength. Tidal energy harnesses the gravitational pull of the moon and sun to create a reliable, predictable power source from the rise and fall of ocean waters. Similarly, you’re someone who operates with a sense of calm and consistency, offering stability in times of change.

While you may not always be the loudest or most visible force, much like the tides, your presence is felt over time, building momentum and creating lasting impact. You thrive on structure and routine, finding power in life’s natural cycles, and you bring this same dependability to your relationships, work, and goals. Beneath your composed surface is a reservoir of strength and persistence.

Like tidal energy, which requires a long-term approach and thoughtful planning, you understand that success is often a slow build, but once you’re moving, nothing can stop your flow. You are resilient, unwavering, and able to adapt with the changing currents of life, always rising to meet whatever challenges come your way.
