renewable energy sources
Clean power origins
Renewable energy sources are power supplies that replenish naturally and won't run out through use—sunlight, wind, water, and geothermal heat, as opposed to finite fossil fuels like coal and oil.
The term appears constantly in discussions of climate policy and sustainability: The country aims to get 80% of its electricity from renewable energy sources by 2030.
