What would be considered renewable forms of energy?

Renewable forms of energy are sources that can be replenished quickly and easily. These include plants, the sun, wind, water, etc. Non-renewable forms of energy aren't easily replenished. For example coal is formed over millions of years. Even though there might be more deposits of coal unfound which we can mine to replenish our stock, coal is non-renewable.


What would the the benefits if humans used more renewable and inexhaustible forms of energy?

there would be more of what their using and it will never run out Or yo Momma (:


How do you do a project on being against renewable energy?

Renewable energy is a noteworthy goal and hopefully it will be cost effective in the future. To stand against renewable energy just because it is renewable would not be a worthy endeavor.


Why would weather systems be considered a renewable energy?

because it repeats over and over again.


What are 2 sources of non renewable electricity?

no source of energy is actual renewable. Once energy is used entropy keeps it from be reused, this is why we don't have perpetual motion machines. If you want two nor renewable energy source from the political world it would be any resource that once used does not return, and watter. Hydroelectric is considered non renewable (don't know why and I have multiple bachelor degrees in science) fossil fuels (Coal, natural gas, gasoline, diesel, kerosene etc.) wind and solar are both considered renewable.


Is fusion norenewable or renewable?

If it could be done it would be similar to renewable. (it is what the Sun does and Sunlight is looked at as renewable energy).


Is coal renewable energy?

Coal is a NON-renewable energy as when burnt, the Coal combusts, emitting carbon dioxide, among other harmful products. A renewable energy would be wind or tidal or solar energy for example.

Is oil a non renewable resource a renewable resource or a inexhaustible resource?

Oil, the fossil fuel, is a non-renewable resource on human time scales. Vegetable oil is a renewable resource. An inexhaustible resource would be sunlight and a renewable resource would be wind energy and solar energy.


Is hydro renewable nonrenewable or inexhaustible?

As long as the water flows, energy can be generated. It would be renewable.


What is a difference between renewable resources and nonrenewable resources?

The difference between a renewable and a non-renewable resource is generally the timescale over which the resource replenishes. Something would be considered 'renewable' if it replenishes over the same timescale in which it is used. Technically, all our energy resources are theoretically renewable, but fossil fuels replenish at an astronomically slower rate than we use them (they basically represent a form of solar energy from millions of years ago). Solar power and wind are renewable. Hydropower is basically renewable. And geothermal power is considered renewable primarily because at the point at which it is used up, the earth will basically no longer exist as we know it anyway.


What would have to happen if geothermal steam was to be considered a renewable resource?

In order for geothermal steam to be considered a renewable resource, the rate of extraction must not exceed the rate of natural replenishment. This would require careful monitoring of the geothermal reservoir to ensure sustainable use. Additionally, the environmental impacts of geothermal energy extraction would need to be minimized to maintain its renewable status.
