Best Answer

there is no such thing as "hybrid electricity" per se. electricity is just electricity and that's it.

a hybrid vehicle uses both electrical and some other form of power to work....

in a hybrid car, both internal combustion and electrical power are used.

most commonly, the small gas engine is just a generator that generates power for the vehicle's batteries like in a Toyota prius. some hybrid vehicles have both the power to run off of the gas generator and a source of electricity, like a home electrical plug. there are also many other types of hybrid vehicles both as concepts and in production.

Is hybrid electricity renewable or nonrenewable?

Hybrid electricity produced in a hybrid car like a Prius is generated from a small gasoline motor. When you use any electricity to run a motor you use it up. It is not renewable. Renewable means it comes back by itself, like sunshine or wind or waves on the beach. All these are renewable and can be used to generate electricity. But all electricity is non-renewable.
