Solar power is a renewable energy resource. Its source is from the sun and the batteries that needs this power does not run out of energy. Wind power is a renewable energy resource. The wind is always present in the earth’s atmosphere. Tidal power is a renewable energy resource. The energy that the waves produce can generate electricity. It is a renewable resource. Nuclear energy uses nuclear reaction to create and produce electricity. Nuclear fission is the main nuclear reaction and it uses uranium. It is a renewable energy resource.

Solar power is renewable because its unlimited, and the only time we cant get more is during the night. Wind is a renewable energy because as our planet constantly orbits the sun, there will constantly be wind on the planet. Nuclear energy is nonrenewable because it uses a very rare form of uranium (U-235). Tidal power is renewable because it uses the force of waves crashing to create power, there will always be ocean waves.
