When is transition viable for using renewable energy resources?

Renewable energy resources are already in use, and are viable. Like all energy sources, renewable sources have considerations of cost, availability, and attainability. Attainability factors strongly into the cost of producing energy from the resource. Resources like hydropower are cheap (easily attained), and have been employed for millenia, but the availability of hydropower is limited. Resources like solar power are widely available, but difficult to attain for large-scale energy production. Solar power is often used in small devices. When the overall cost (factored over the life of the production facility) of creating energy from a renewable resource is near to the cost of other resources, then it will be viable to use.


Why do we use non-renewable resources despite their limited availability and environmental impact?

We use non-renewable resources because they are often more convenient, cost-effective, and readily available compared to renewable alternatives. Additionally, industries and economies have been built around the use of non-renewable resources, making it challenging to transition to more sustainable options.

Why are nonrenewable resources used more than renewable resources?

Nonrenewable resources are often cheaper and more readily available than renewable resources, making them more attractive for immediate use. Additionally, the infrastructure and technology required to harness renewable resources can be cost-prohibitive for some industries. Finally, there may be a lack of awareness or incentive to transition to renewable resources due to a reliance on established nonrenewable energy sources.


Why do most people use nonrenewable energy instead of renewable resources?

Cost. If there was an alternative that was cost effective the free market would embrace it. Unfortunately there is no cost effective solution. Hold on to your wallets because the solution will be to raise current energy costs to "level" it with more expensive "renewable" sources.
