Answer:- electricity, heating, transportation and manufacturing.

Explanation:First lets us know what non-renewable energy is.

Non-renewable energy is energy derived from finite resources that are not replaced quickly enough to keep up with the speed of consumption. For perspective, non-renewable energy sources will not be replenished in our lifetime, or, more accurately, many human lifetimes. Most non-renewable energy sources are fossil fuels such as petroleum and crude oil, coal, and natural gas¬, but nuclear fuel, mainly used to produce electricity, heating, transportation and manufacturing, is also generally classified as nonrenewable.
