Non conventional energy

Non conventional energy is a synonymous terms used for the alternative energy or the renewable energy. In a broader sense the clean energy like solar, geothermal, water, wind, biomass, fuels, electricity etc. are taken as the non conventional energy.

Non conventional/ renewable energy sources are those energy sources which are not destroyed when their energy is harnessed. Renewable energy sources are distinct from fossile fuels, which must be consumed to release energy.

Human use of renewable energy requires technologies that harness natural phenomena, such as sunlight, wind, wave, eater flow, biological process such as anaerobic digestion, biological hydrogen production, and geothermal heat.

The most common definition is that renewable energy is form an energy resource that is replaced by a natural process at a rate that is equal to or faster than the rate at which that resource is being consumed.

Renewable energy is a subset of sustainable energy. And we similarly hope that all the non conventional energy sources will become conventional, common and every day, as they are all free, green and emit no carbon dioxide.
