Renewable Energy
Renewable energy refers to energy sourced from natural processes that are continuously replenished. This includes energy derived from sunlight (solar), wind (wind power), water (hydropower), biomass (organic materials), and geothermal heat (thermal energy from the Earth). Unlike fossil fuels, which are finite and contribute to environmental pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, renewable energy sources produce little to no emissions during operation and offer a sustainable alternative for meeting energy needs. The emphasis on renewable energy is largely driven by the need to reduce dependence on fossil fuels, combat climate change, and promote sustainable development. Renewable energy technologies are essential for creating a more resilient energy system and fostering energy independence.
