Renewable energy is energy produced from sources like the sun and wind that are naturally replenished and do not run out. It is often referred to as clean energy, green energy or alternative energy. Renewable energy is an alternative to energy that relies on fossil fuels like oil, gas, and coal and is less harmful on the environment hence transitioning to renewable energy helps to combat climate change.
Renewable energy also represents a low cost solution for the energy needs of many parts of the world. This will only improve as costs continue to fall, further increasing the accessibility of green energy, especially in the developing world.
