Renewable energy means using the power of the sun, or the wind, or the movement of water in rivers and oceans to generate power. Once these power plants are established there are no emissions of carbon dioxide or any other pollutants.
Non-renewable energy (from burning coal, oil and natural gas, mostly) releases vast amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere increasing our greenhouse gases and contributing to global warming and climate change.
So renewable energy is much better for society than non-renewable energy.
they are less expensive They can be used again
Worse in what respect? Renewable energy is generally much better environmentally, but usually costs more than non-renewable. Non-renewable energy from coal, oil, and natural gas causes both air and water pollution, and greenhouse gases. Renewable energy from windmills interferes with the habitat and migration of birds and bats, hydro power diverts spawning patterns and can lead to flooding, nuclear generates dangerous waste, biomass can likewise release toxic substances, geothermal is efficient but extraordinarily costly. That pretty much leaves solar, which still has a long way to go in regard to efficiency, but progress is being made there. The decision which is better ultimately depends upon your needs, your resources, your location, and your environmental awareness.
It would be naïve to say that there is a completely renewable source of energy. The sun, for example, which is the source of all energy on Earth, will form a Red Giant in a few billion years time, and will produce far less energy than it had in the past. Additionally, although wind (which relies on the sun) is renewable per say, machines to make use of wind energy, such as wind turbines, require maintenance et cetera and are in that sense, not *completely* renewable. However, for our purposes, and especially in contrast to Fossil fuels, the Sun, the wind, the tides et cetera are renewable sources of energy. Windmills are machines which convert the wind's energy into another form of energy. They, themselves, are not "renewable *sources," rather they can make use of a 'renewable' source, 'the wind,' to transform kinetic into potential energy.
Yes, some renewable energy resources are more reliable than others. For instance, geothermal and hydroelectric power can provide consistent energy due to their stable nature, while solar and wind energy are more variable, depending on weather conditions. The reliability of these resources can also be enhanced through energy storage solutions and grid management strategies. Overall, the integration of various renewable sources can help balance reliability and variability.
The reason that wind energy is better than oil or gas is because it is a renewable resource. While there is a limited amount of oil on this planet, there is an unlimited supply of wind. In addition, the damage to the environment is much smaller with wind power, due to the fact that there are no emissions from, say, burning materials.
Generally they are more convenient and portable. Most of our energy is produced by non renewable sources and society is, presently, adapted to that. Many people would say they were not better, because of the carbon they are putting into the atmosphere. They are cheaper at the moment because few countries have a price on carbon. See the related question below.
Because renewable sources can be replenished (apex) because we will not run out of them
If this is a question of green energy, then yes, solar power is better than coal because it is a renewable source. Coal is a fossil fuel that is non-renewable.
Fossil fuels are non-renewable so have a finite supply. This means that they will eventually run out. They also produce carbon dioxide when burnt which contributes towards global warming. Renewable sources do not pollute the atmosphere and do not run out. Therefore renewable sources are better for the environment, but fossil fuels give more energy per mass. Which is better depends on what you look for, environment and sustainability or high density of energy. Renewable energy still gives out sufficient energy, so renewable sources are better.
yes..... renewable is better than non-renewable because you can renew it and it is better for the environment. :)
they are less expensive They can be used again
chris brown is the sexiest niogga n this world nd trey songz
but of course renewable energy is. just face the weriod but true fact's renewable energy does not pollut there you go that is all the information you need to know to end up getting the ture answer! look it up on all websites but i will tell you it is bettre in test books other websites and above.
Renewable sources of energy are better than nonrenewable sources because they are sustainable and do not deplete finite resources. They also have lower environmental impact, such as reduced greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution. Additionally, renewable energy sources can help increase energy security and create jobs in the clean energy sector.
Because renewable sources can be replenished (apex) because we will not run out of them
Around 20% of world electricity is from renewable energy in 2009. More than 80% of the renewable energy use is hydroelectric which had a lot of installation limit. Progress on renewable energy is rather slow to the energy crisis.
Solar energy is considered better than fossil fuels because it is a renewable and clean source of energy that does not produce harmful greenhouse gas emissions, unlike fossil fuels which contribute to climate change and air pollution.
