Natural resources like wind, tides ,solar, biomass, etc generate energy which is known as “Non-conventional resources“. These are pollution free and hence we can use these to produce a clean form of energy without any wastage.
We need non conventional sources of energy as the consumption of energy grows, the population depends more and more on fossil fuels such as coal, oil and gas day by day. There is a need to secure the energy supply for future since the prices of gas and oil keep rising by each passing day. So we need to use more and more renewable sources of energy. For the effective exploitation of non-conventional sources, there has been an establishment of a separate department namely “Department of non-conventional sources of energy” by the government of India.

Renewable resources provide energy  in four important areas like :

•Electricity generation
•Water heating or cooling
•Transporting
•Rural

There are 5 types of non conventional sources of energy namely
●Solar energy
●Wind energy
●Tidal energy
●Geo thermal energy
●Bio mass
