Answer:

Hydro-electricity:

It is produced from water which is a renewable resource. For generating hydro electricity water is released at great force from a high head, and hence dams are constructed across rivers to store water. Other sources of energy namely coal; petroleum and gas are non-renewable resources. Hydro-electricity accounts for 25 per cent of total electricity produced in India. The hydel energy will play a major role in the prosperity of India in future.
