Key Concepts

Renewable Energy

Renewable energy refers to energy obtained from sources that are naturally replenished on a human timescale, such as wind, solar, and hydropower. These sources are considered sustainable as they can be used continuously without the risk of depletion, contributing to reduced environmental impact and long-term energy security.

Non-Renewable Energy

Non-renewable energy comes from sources that do not replenish at a sustainable rate, typically including fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas. These energy sources are finite, contribute significantly to greenhouse gas emissions, and lead to environmental challenges such as air pollution and climate change.
