5 major types of renewable energy resources

January 24, 2019

Wind power or wind energy is the use of air flow through wind turbines to provide the mechanical power to turn electric generators and traditionally to do other work, like milling or pumping. Wind poweris a sustainable and renewable alternative to burning fossil fuels, and has much less effect on the environment. Renewable energy is energy that is collected from renewable resources, which are naturally replenished on a human timescale, such as sunlight, wind, rain, tides, waves, and geothermal heat.
