You probably might have heard about renewable. What comes to your mind??

For most people, we all think about Solar energy while others might think about the windmill and the likes.

Well, you are all correct, they are just types of renewable energy we have.

In short, renewable energy is natural sources or processes that are constantly replenished. For example, sunlight or wind keeps shining and blowing, even if their availability depends on time and weather.

These resources that we talk about don't finish, they are always replenished. Typical examples are Sunlight, rain, wind, geothermal heat, etc.

These resources are been converted to reusable energy with the aid of some equipment/tools.

There are different types/forms of renewable some of which we have mentioned above:

  1. Solar Energy
  2. Wind Energy
  3. Hydropower Energy
  4. Biomass(new), etc.

I am not going to bore you guys with a long article, I will stop here and we explain each of the types in the next article.

I hope you find this helpful.

Thanks for reading.
