These sources can be turned from fuels into usable form of energy.The source of major amount of electricity may be can surely in renewable sources. This reviewarticle explains the brief introduction of renewable energy with its types andmerits-demerits. It also explains the conversion of the renewable energy intousable electrical energy with brief introduction of solar cell and its variousgenerations.
