Even though “Ethan
Frome”, novel by Edith Wharton, was written over a hundred year ago, it is
still widely read today because the theme of the story is world-wide and
all-time relevant. This universality of the theme, representing the society and
morality as an obstacle to fulfill desires (in this case love), makes “Ethan
Frome” relevant a hundred years after and it would probably still be relevant
in future, as it’s close to every human’s heart.
Both “Romeo and Juliet”
by William Shakespeare and “Ethan Frome” by Edith Wharton deal with the problem
of society and morality as an obstacle to fulfill certain desires, which is in
both cases forbidden love. Considering the theme, both “Romeo and Juliet” and “Ethan
Frome” have the same tragic tone, but the ends show how different and twisted destiny
can be.
<span>The love story of Ethan
Frome and Mattie is still relevant today, after a hundred years, and probably
will stay relevant in future as the theme of the story is on universal level of
human struggle with feelings, social norms and morality. </span>
Answer:
A renewable electricity generation technology harnesses a naturally existing energy flux, such as wind, sun, heat, or tides, and converts that flux to electricity. Natural phenomena have varying time constants, cycles, and energy densities. To tap these sources of energy, renewable electricity generation technologies must be located where the natural energy flux occurs, unlike conventional fossil-fuel and nuclear electricity-generating facilities, which can be located at some distance from their fuel sources. Renewable technologies also follow a paradigm somewhat different from conventional energy sources in that renewable energy can be thought of as manufactured energy, with the largest proportion of costs, external energy, and material inputs occurring during the manufacturing process. Although conventional sources such as nuclear- and coal-powered electricity generation have a high proportion of capital-to-fuel costs, all renewable technologies, except for biomass-generated electricity (biopower), have no fuel costs. The trade-off is the ongoing and future cost of fossil fuel against the present fixed capital costs of renewable energy technologies.
Scale economics likewise differs for renewables and conventional energy production. Larger coal-fired and nuclear-powered generating facilities exhibit lower average costs of generation than do smaller plants, realizing economies of scale based on the size of the facility. Renewable electricity achieves economies of scale prmarily at the equipment manufacturing stage rather than through construction of large facilities at the generating site. Large hydroelectric generating units are an exception and have on-site economies of scale, but not to the same extent as coal-and nuclear-powered electricity plants. :)
