Who are the scientist?

The textbook reading mentions Charles Trip and Edwin Drake as pioneers in the use of oil. Who are some of the people or scientist that are responsible for the development of renewable energy resources?

Charles F. Brush made wind energy, Enrico Fermi invented a nuclear reactor, Horace de Saussure invented the first solar energy collector, but there were many after that started to develop solar energy.

In 1969, M. Jannaschii discovered tidal power. He did it by observing the tides at La Rance (A river) in France.

Henry Ford used ethanol to fuel one of his first automobiles, the quadricycle. The use of ethanol influenced the use of biomass energy.

Lester Pelton invented a type of free-jet water turbine called the Pelton Wheel or Pelton turbine. Lester Pelton was born in 1829 in Vermillion, Ohio. In 1850, he immigrated to California during the time of the gold rush. Pelton made his living as a carpenter and a millwright. At that time there was a great demand for new power sources to run the machinery and mills necessary for the expanding gold mines. Many mines depended on steam engines, however those required exhaustible supplies of wood or coal. What was abundant was water power from the fast running mountain creeks and waterfalls

The solar cell creation for the first time is credited to Charles Fritts, who used junctions that were created when the semiconductor was coated by a very thin layer of gold.

In 1839 Alexandre Edmond Becquerel discovered the photovoltaic effect which explains how electricity can be generated from sunlight. He claimed that “shining light on an electrode submerged in a conductive solution would create an electric current.”
