Energy costs comprise an increasing percentage of manufacturing costs. Energy options include photovoltaic, solar thermal, geothermal, biofuels, wind, and hydro. Renewable energies come in many different forms, from wind and water that are considered to be environmentally friendly, to reclaimed methane and biomass, which still produce pollutants when used, but far less — on the whole — than traditional fuels.
