Renewable energy refers to energy derived from natural sources that are replenished at a faster rate than they are consumed. These sources include sunlight (solar energy), wind (wind energy), water flow (hydropower), geothermal heat, and biomass. Unlike fossil fuels, which are finite and contribute significantly to pollution and greenhouse gas emissions when burned, renewable energy sources offer a more sustainable and environmentally friendly alternative. The use of renewable energy is essential for reducing dependence on non-renewable resources, combating climate change, and promoting energy security. As technology advances, the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of harnessing renewable energy continue to improve, contributing to a global shift towards cleaner energy solutions.
