Yes, fundamentally geothermal energy is NOT a renewable resource. The souge heat for geothermal energy is the heat from Earth's core (caused by the fission of heavy, radioactive isotopes). This heat is dissipating and will not be renewed. Also where geothermal energy is extracted, the turnover rate in the crustal rocks is so slow that the heat source is quickly cooled to the point of exhaustion. (Note, highly volcanic areas are an exception to this).

Which non conventional energy source can be exploited most economically?
solar energy

Burning produces thermal energy
Why renewable resource is best?
Renewable energy can't run out. Non-renewable energy WILL run out. Renewable energy is produced at a constant rate, non-renewable is not. Renewable energy is free when the generator is built, non-renewable is not. Renewable energy does not cause pollution (with the exception of biofuels), non-renewable energy does.
Which is used more renewable or non-renewable energy?
non renewable energy
What is the difference between renewable energy and non renewable sources of energy?
renewable source of energy can be regenerated but non-renewable source of energy can not be regenerated.
What other type of renewable resource is water power like?
Water power is like wind, thermal heat, and solar power all renewable.
What does non renewable energy not include?
Energy that is renewable.
Wind energy renewable or non renewable?
Renewable
What energy sources are developing both green and renewable fuels?
Renewable energy uses basically natural and non-exhaustible sources such as sunlight, wind, water, thermal springs, biomass from plants and animal waste.
What does non-renewable energy souce means?
Non-renewable energy source means that the source will eventually run out and is not renewable.
Is coal a renewable or a non-renewable source of energy?
Coal is a non-renewable resource.
