Best Answer

Once fossil fuels have been used up, they can not be replaced, as they took millions of years to naturally develop. Therefore, they are classed as non-renewable. This is why people are trying to find alternatives that are renewable - nuclear power stations, wind farms, tidal and hydroelectric generating schemes, etc.
