Renewable Energy | Department of Energy
Renewable energy comes from unlimited, naturally replenished resources, such as the sun, tides, and wind. Renewable energy can be used for electricity generation, space and water heating and cooling, and transportation. Non-renewable energy, in contrast, comes from finite sources, such as coal, natural gas, and oil.
Wind Energy Basics | Department of Energy
Wind energy is actually a byproduct of the sun. The sun''s uneven heating of the atmosphere, the earth''s irregular surfaces (mountains and valleys), and the planet''s revolution around the sun all combine to create wind. Since wind is in plentiful supply, it''s a sustainable resource for as long as the sun''s rays heat the planet.
