Renewable energy refers to energy sources that are naturally replenished on a human timescale. It includes energy generated from natural processes that are continuously replenished, such as sunlight (solar energy), wind (wind energy), water flow (hydropower), biomass (organic materials), and geothermal heat (geothermal energy). Unlike fossil fuels, which are finite and contribute to environmental pollution and climate change when burned, renewable energy sources are sustainable and have a lower environmental impact. They provide a pathway to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, enhance energy security, and promote economic development through job creation in new energy sectors. The transition to renewable energy is considered essential for achieving global climate goals and for fostering a sustainable energy future.
