Renewable energy describes a collection of energy technologies i.e. solar, wind, geothermal derived from sources that are never-ending and can be replenished time after time. Renewable energy is one of the environmentally friendly sources of energy and effectiveness of growth economic development of the country. India is blessed with a diversity of renewable energy sources, the main ones being Wind, Solar, Biomass, Biogas, Geothermal, Tidal and Small Hydro power. Fossil fuels are non-renewable forms of energy, meaning, they utilize limited resources that will ultimately reduce, hence, driving up overall energy costs. These very countries have responded to the threat by stepping up campaigns to embrace renewable forms of energy like solar and wind.
