Many researchs found that solar energy would be practical and endless power in the world‚ it can be applied in almost countries where sunshine is lasted at least 10 hours per day. Other energy is created by waterfalls called hydropower that had been applying for a long time in many countries while wind and wave energy can be combined together

Renewable sources of Energy Summary The potential of renewable energy sources is enormous as they can in principle meet many times the world’s energy demand. Renewable energy sources such as biomass‚ wind‚ solar‚ hydropower‚ and geothermal can provide sustainable energy services‚ based on the use of routinely available‚ indigenous resources. A transition to renewables-based energy systems is looking increasingly likely as their costs decline while the price of oil and gas continue to fluctuate
