reusable energy is energy that is obtained from renewable sources

when you put gas in your car, your using a fosil fuel that has a limited amount left on the planet. once used, the fuel is unuseable since it no longer can chemically combust in an engine.

with renewable energy such as solar power or wind power, the energy source isnt used up like fosil fuel. with solar energy, solar radiation is converted into electricity via solar panels or a steam generator. since the sun has about 4 billion years let in her, theres no shortage of energy in the near future. the same with wind power, when wind is blown through a windmill, the wind simple passes through, not being destroyed in the process
