Renewable energy is generally defined as energy that comes from resources which are naturally replenished on a human timescale such as sunlight, wind, rain, tides, waves and geothermal heat. Renewable energy replaces conventional fuels in four distinct areas: electricity generation, hot water/space heating, motor fuels, and rural (off-grid) energy...

Energy sources which do not rely on the burning of fossil fuels or nuclear reactions are renewable in that they are continually available and essentially free, except for the cost of capturing them through engineering solutions. The current major renewable energy sources are hydro-electricity, wind and solar power. Geothermal (hot-rocks), wave and ...
