Question
Distinguish between conventional and non conventional sources of energy.
✓
Answer
Sources of energy which include both commercial and non-commercial sources are called conventional sources of energy, whereas non-conventional sources of energy include solar energy, wind energy and tidal power.
India, being a tropical country has unlimited potential for producing the non-conventional sources of energy (i.e., solar, wind and tidal energy) if we are able to use the available cost-effective technologies, whereas this is not so in the case of conventional sources of energy.
