sustainable energy
Long-term power sources
Sustainable energy is power generated from sources that aren't depleted by use—solar, wind, hydroelectric, and geothermal, as opposed to finite fossil fuels.
The term emphasizes long-term viability: The country is investing heavily in sustainable energy.
It overlaps with renewable energy, though sustainable sometimes carries broader implications about environmental impact and resource management.
