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. RE often provides energy in four important areas: electricity generation, air and water heating/cooling, transportation, and rural (off-grid) energy services
Pros
Clean and sustainable energy
Cons
Technologies tend to have very low energy density and capacity factor
Real Talk
All other energy sources should be organized around RE market-based solutions.
