Sunshine is solar energy.
It is free if you collect your own solar energy because nobody legally owns the sun (and nobody ever will), therefore solar energy from the sun is free. However if you depend on a thrid party to deliver the energy to you from a solar power station, it will cost you a maintenance and delivery fee, to pay for the upkeep of the station.
However, if you install your own solar panels rather than relying on a third party, it will cost you to install solar panels on your home, to convert your home to using solar energy and to take your home "off the system" (to remove your dependency from nationally-produced power).
But it will not cost you anything to use solar energy from your own solar panels. In a couple of years, you would have produced enough personal energy from solar power to make the cost of the conversion worth it.

Benefits non-conventional sources of energy?
If you mean sources like wind and solar energy, they are renewable because they don't consume fuel which is non-renewable, they don't emit greenhouse gases, and the sources of energy are free.
How much is solar energy used compared to other energy sources?
Solar energy is probably the second or third most used form of energy. The first would be coal, and then solar would have to be compared to wind energy. Solar is most popular in Europe and places like the US. However, wind energy is probably more widely used than solar.

If your body runs on solar energy how is that possible?
You can run on solar energy because the sun helps plants make their food and give humans O2. You eat the plant (like a carrot or cabbage) and breath O2 to live. You need solar energy to start your day with O2 and veggies. Yes, we do run on solar energy. It is possible we run on solar energy because when you eat food like a slice of bread or a baked potato, you consume the energy stored by the plant.
