Renewable energy, also known as non-conventional energy , refers to energy that comes from natural resources that are continually replenished and sustainable over time. These resources are either infinite or naturally replenished on a human timescale. Key renewable energy sources include: Solar energy : Energy harnessed from the sun through photovoltaic cells or solar thermal technology. Wind energy : Energy captured from wind using turbines to generate electricity. Biomass : Organic materials such as agricultural waste, wood, and other plant matter that can be converted into energy. Small-hydro : Small-scale hydroelectric power generation systems utilizing the flow of water. Biogas : A renewable source created from the decomposition of organic waste. Energy storage systems : Technologies that store energy for later use, such as batteries and flywheel systems. Pumped hydro storage : A large-scale energy storage method using water reservoirs to store potential energy. Nuclear energy : T...
