Renewable Energy

Renewable energy refers to energy derived from natural sources that are replenished at a faster rate than they are consumed. These energy sources are sustainable and environmentally friendly, unlike fossil fuels which are finite and contribute to pollution and climate change. Common types of renewable energy include solar energy (captured from sunlight), wind energy (generated from wind currents), hydroelectric energy (produced from flowing water), biomass (organic materials used for fuel), and geothermal energy (derived from the Earth’s internal heat). The transition to renewable energy sources is crucial for reducing greenhouse gas emissions, enhancing energy security, and fostering sustainable development.
