Cars can be adapted to run on a wide range of renewable fuels by using diesel engine. The diesel engine is one of the most effective energy converters available to us today.
Not as of yet. Most renewable energy sources are still expensive and many are not yet ready for large scale use. Some, such as hydroelectric, are comparable to fossil fuel costs. When this happens, you will see companies naturally migrate to the renewables. Sometimes companies will even start migrating early, providing that some form of mandate or financial incentive is given. Wind is one example. The logic is that if we build enough wind systems, the technology will evovle faster. There is evidence that this evolution is occurring.
Most renewable energy originates from sources such as sunlight, wind, water, and biomass. These sources provide a sustainable and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional fossil fuels for generating electricity and powering vehicles.
Eventually, fossil fuels will run out.Fossil fuels cause a lot of pollution.
Most of our modern civilisation relies on fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas). We burn them in transport, industry and to generate electricity. Burning fossil fuels releases a greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide, that is causing global warming. To stop burning fossil fuels we have to change to renewable energy(solar, wind, water, hydro, tidal and wave, geothermal, ocean thermal, biomass, biofuel and hydrogen).
They have been the most efficient energy source available.
There are fossil fuels because things (like plants and animals) died hundreds of millions of years ago. Most Fossil fuels are non- renewable. Meaning they will not replenish untill we are dead and gone for hundreds of millions of years.
Renewable means that it comes back again tomorrow even after we have used it as much as we can today, like sunlight, or wind or tidal power.Tropical rainforests are non-renewable (well, not for hundreds and hundreds of years) and are NOT fossil fuel.Most non-renewable sources of energy are fossil fuels, but there are many minerals like gold and silver, etc, that are not fossil fuels, but are non-renewable. Strictly speaking if we wait around for millions of years some of them might renew, but generally we say, if we use up all the gold in the world today, then there's no more tomorrow. Non-renewable!
Hydro-power presently is the most prevalent renewable power source, primarily as hydroelectric generation.
Most countries burn fossil fuels to generate electricity.If they used solar power to generate electricity, thenThey would not have to use so much fossil fuel.Solar Energy itself does not reduce the use of fossil fuels. But the use of solar energy should hopefully reduce the need of fossil fuels to create energy, so therefore the more we can use solar power as an energy source instead of fossil fuels, the more we reduce the use of fossil fuels.

Most of the energy we use today comes from fossil fuels such as oil, natural gas, and coal. These non-renewable sources are used to generate electricity, power vehicles, and heat buildings. However, there is a growing push towards renewable energy sources like solar, wind, and hydropower to reduce our reliance on fossil fuels.
Most fossil Fuels comes from the ground soil or in mountains
The most widely used source of renewable energy today is hydropower. It involves harnessing the energy from flowing water to generate electricity. Hydropower accounts for a significant percentage of the world's electricity generation from renewable sources.
Petroleum is a fossil fuel and as such it is a non-renewable resource. Petroleum is refined from crude oil, which has been formed over thousands of years. So petroleum is NOT a renewable resource.
Coal.
The most commenly Renewable Energy Sources available in India are Sun , Cowdung , Wind , hydroelectric units . The Non-renewable sources are Fossil fuels like Coal , Oil , gas etc.
