Which of the following is NOT an example of on-site generated renewable energy?
A: Biofuel-based electrical system
B: REC
C: Solar
D: Wind

参考答案: B

本题解释:
Notes:

Reference: Guide to Purchasing Green Power

Biofuel based technologies use a renewable/recurring supply of organic material such as plant matter (biomass) to produce electricity. Bio-fuels are fuels derived from biomass. Bio-fuel systems reduce dependence on fossil fuels.

For LEED biofuels include:

untreated wood waste
agricultural crops or waste
animal waste
other organic waste
landfill gas

A REC represents the environmental, social, and other positive attributes of power generated by renewable resources. These attributes may be sold separately from the underlying commodity electricity. RECs are not energy themselves.

Solar power can be generated on-site and is a renewable energy source.

Wind can be generated on-site and is a renewable energy source.
