Explanation:

Renewable Energy is a natural energy which does not have a limited supply. Renewable Energy can be used again and again, and will never run out. or Renewable energy is used to describe energy sources that are replenished by natural processes on a sufficiently rapid time-scale so that they can be used by humans more or less indefinitely, provided the quantity taken per unit of time is not too great. Renewable energy is derived from natural processes that are replenished constantly. In its various forms, it derives directly from the sun, or from heat generated deep within the earth.

Included in the definition is electricity and heat generated from:

solar,

wind,

ocean,

hydropower,

biomass,

geothermal resources, and

biofuels and hydrogen derived from renewable resources.

Although biomass is a renewable energy, this should not be mistaken for a clean energy source. Although biomass is significantly cleaner than most fossil fuels such as coal and oil, it still produces sulphur dioxide during electricity production.
