Renewable energy refers to energy sourced from natural processes that are replenished at a faster rate than they are consumed. This includes energy derived from resources such as sunlight, wind, rain, tides, waves, and geothermal heat. Unlike fossil fuels, which are finite and contribute to environmental pollution, renewable energy is considered more sustainable and environmentally friendly. Common forms of renewable energy include solar power (capturing sunlight), wind power (using wind turbines), hydropower (utilizing flowing water), biomass (organic materials), and geothermal energy (from the Earth’s internal heat). The transition to renewable energy is seen as essential in addressing climate change, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and promoting energy security. As technology advances, the efficiency and affordability of renewable energy sources have improved, leading to a greater adoption in energy systems worldwide.
