Ooo I know this one did this in like the 7th grade... its umm wel I know biomass is a renewable energy source because the energy it contains ... chlorophyll in plants captures the sun's energy by converting. This is a tuffy I could give you 10 off the top of my head that DO include the sun as a renuable energy source? Okay say electricity! bc it comes from lightining too, and the sun isn't shining when lightning hits so that. Sorry dude or dudet. Can't help you. Unless you feel like helping me do college chem. jk.
Not weather dependent:
Geothermal energy is powered by the long term radioactive decay of fissile products in the earths crust.
Tidal energy is powered by the combined motions and rotations of the Sun, Moon and Earth.
Neither of these are weather dependent.
Outside the Earth's atmosphere solar energy for artificial satellites or a solar array could be considered to be non-weather dependent.
Weather dependent:
Large scale hydroelectricity would be more likely influenced through long term climate changes than weather changes.
Biowastes acquired from diverse locations, or collected over time such as in a landfill might also be considered weather independent.
Wind power and Solar power also depends on the weather.
Of course acquiring energy from all these sources would have environmental impacts, particularly hydroelectricity.
Geothermal energy is the one renewable energy (the others are solar, wind, hydro, tidal and wave and biofuel) that does not depend on energy from the sun. Geothermal means 'heat from the earth' and that's where it's energy comes from, the heat deep under the earth.
There were not a list of answer choices provided. But petroleum is not renewable. With petroleum going so fast we may have a global energy crisis in the near future.

what is origin of non-renewable energy sources, including how energy became trapped in these souces
Nuclear energy
Why cant we get all the power we need from renewable energy sources right now?
The Energy Revolution is an effort to have the world move away from tradition 'dirty' sources of energy to cleaner, renewable energy sources. It is believed we can be at almost 100 percent renewable energy by the year 2050.
Energy from the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) is non-renewable.
Renewable sources of energy, like solar, wind, geothermal, tidal, hydro/water and biomass, are sources that that are not consumed during their use. When oil is burned it is consumed, finished. It can't be used again. But renewable sources will still be there after we have used them, like the sun, still radiating heat and light for as long as we need them.

The most popular renewable energy sources currently are: Solar energy. Wind energy. Hydro energy. Tidal energy. Geothermal energy. Biomass energy.
Most energy sources are non-renewable, like coal, oil and natural gas, which are all burned to produce electricity or to power vehicles. They don't renew when we use them up.Our renewable sources (Solar, Wind, Water and Geothermal power) make electricity and they still come back tomorrow. We are only beginning to use these sources.
renewable source of energy can be regenerated but non-renewable source of energy can not be regenerated.
Renewable energy sources are Solar, wind, Geothermal, Tidal are prime energy sources
some energy sources are non renewable but some are renewable
Renewable energy resources are always there. We just need to harness them.
Because if we use renewable sources, it's with us forever. fossil fuels and non-renewable sources will run out someday.
Yes, a wind turbine is a renewable energy source!!
