Science and technology are constantly evolving, and over the centuries, man has discovered ways to harness various forms of energy. The very first source of energy to be harnessed was the wind. Ships with sails were the norm until the invention of steam-powered engines. And for the latter half of the 20th century, coal was still the most prevalent source of energy.
