Which option gives an example of renewable energy?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Solar energy
Solar energy is renewable because sunlight is continuously supplied by natural processes on a human time scale. Solar panels convert sunlight into electricity without burning fuel at the point of generation, so they can reduce carbon dioxide emissions when replacing coal, oil, or gas. Coal, petrol, and natural gas are finite fossil fuels formed over geological periods.
