Conventional energy sources such as natural gas, oil, coal, or nuclear are finite but still hold the majority of the energy market. However, renewable energy sources like wind, fuel cells, solar, biogas/biomass, tidal, geothermal, etc.
Explanation:
These include coal, petroleum, natural gas and nuclear energy. Oil is the most widely used source of energy. Coal, petroleum and natural gas account for about 90% of world's production of commercial energy and hydroelectric and nuclear power account for about 10%.
However, renewable energy sources like wind, fuel cells, solar, biogas/biomass, tidal, geothermal, etc.
Power provided by traditional means such as coal, wood, gas, etc., as opposed to alternative energy sources such as solar power, tidal power, wind power, etc. ( Source: GEMET/PHC)
