Harnesses energy from the sun using photovoltaic cells. Applications include power generation for homes, businesses, and utilities. Potential wildlife considerations involve habitat disruption and avian collisions.

Uses temperature differences in ocean water to generate electricity. Suitable for tropical locations. Wildlife considerations include thermal pollution and changes to marine habitats.

Energy generated from the motion of water without the use of a dam, such as river current turbines. Aimed at supplementing power generation. Concerns for wildlife, particularly fish species due to potential interference with river systems.

Energy comes from the tidal movements of the ocean. It's used for power generation in coastal areas. Wildlife considerations include disruptions to marine life habitats and migration patterns.

Utilizes heat from the Earth's interior for heating and power generation. Applications are somewhat limited to regions with geothermal activity. Wildlife considerations include land use and potential for habitat loss.

Fuels derived from living matter, like ethanol from corn. They're used in transportation and as an alternative to fossil fuels. Impact on wildlife includes land competition and potential food supply issues.

Energy produced by the flow of water in rivers and streams. It's used in large-scale power generation. Aquatic ecosystems can be affected, including fish migration and river habitats.

Energy captured from surface waves on the ocean. It's being developed for electricity generation in coastal areas. Wildlife considerations include effects on marine ecosystems and potential disturbances to habitats.

Conversion of biological materials like plants and waste into energy. Used for heating and electricity. Wildlife considerations involve land use changes, habitat loss, and impacts on biodiversity.
