The non-conventional sources of energy are:
1. Wind Energy
advantages- non-polluting; low cost production of electricity once setup; safe and clean
disadvantages- noise pollution; wind mills costly to setup; disturbs radio and T.V. reception; harmful to birds.
2. Solar Energy
advantages- inexhaustible; non-polluting
disadvantages- expensive; diffused source, so gets wasted.
3. Tidal Energy
advantages- non-polluting; inexhaustible
disadvantages- destroys wildlife habitat; difficult to harness
4. Nuclear energy
advantages- Emits large amount of energy
disadvantages- generates radioactive waste; expensive
5. Bio Gas
advantages- low cost; easy to operate; makes use of bio waste
disadvantages- causes green house effect
6. Geothermal Energy
advantages- clean Eco friendly and always available
disadvantages- located far away from cities and so costly to transport the electricity

∙ 13y agoNon conventional resources of energy also known as reneable source of energy . these source of energy are endless in the environment they can be quickly replaced in environment by water cycle of from the plants and are also cheap and present in abandance .
eg :- wind : wind mill
water : hydro electricity
tide : tidal energy
etc.
