Renewable energy: firewood and grass, solar energy, wind energy, geothermal energy, hydro energy, ocean.
Non-renewable energy sources: nuclear, natural gas, biogas, coal, oil.
Renewable energy.
It generally refers to non-fossil energy sources obtained from nature and can be renewable, and currently mainly refers to natural energy sources such as wind, solar, hydro, biomass, geothermal and ocean energy. China's renewable energy resources are very abundant, and there is great potential for development and utilization. Vigorously developing the development and utilization of renewable energy can effectively delay the consumption rate and scarcity trend of non-renewable energy (such as coal, oil, natural gas and other fossil fuels), which is the direction of energy utilization.
Non-renewable energy.
It generally refers to the energy resources that cannot be regenerated at this stage after human development and utilization, and is called "non-renewable energy". For example, coal and oil are the remains of paleontology that are buried in the deep underground and formed after a long geological time (so they are also called "fossil fuels"), and once they are burned and consumed, they cannot be regenerated in hundreds or even tens of thousands of years, so they are classified as "non-renewable energy".

Energy sources that can be reused are called renewable. After use, there is no more, which is called non-renewable.

After human development and utilization, natural resources that cannot be regenerated for a long time are called non-renewable resources. It mainly refers to various minerals, rocks and fossil fuels in nature, such as peat, coal, oil, natural gas, metal minerals, non-metallic minerals, etc. This kind of resource is formed in the long-term evolution history of the earth, in a certain stage, in a certain area, under certain conditions, through a long geological period.
Compared with the development of human society, its formation is very slow, and compared with other resources, the rate of regeneration is very slow, or almost non-renewable. Human beings will only consume non-renewable resources, and it is impossible to maintain their original reserves or regenerate. Among them, some resources can be reused, such as gold, silver, copper, iron, lead, zinc and other metal resources; Others are resources that cannot be reused, such as fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas, and when they are burned as energy sources, although the energy can be converted from one form to another, the original material form no longer exists, and its form has changed.
For example, coal and oil are the remains of paleontology that are buried deep underground and formed after a long period of evolution (so they are also called "fossil fuels"), and once they are burned and consumed, they cannot be regenerated in hundreds or even tens of thousands of years, so they are classified as "non-renewable energy". In addition, non-renewable energy sources include coal, oil, natural gas, nuclear energy, and oil shale.
New energy is also known as unconventional energy. It refers to various forms of energy in addition to traditional energy sources. It refers to the energy resources that have just begun to be developed and utilized or are being actively researched and to be promoted, such as solar energy, geothermal energy, wind energy, marine energy, biomass energy and nuclear fusion energy. >>>More

Coal, oil, natural gas, and hydropower are conventional energy sources. Solar, wind, geothermal, nuclear, and ocean energy include tidal energy and wave energy, and hydrogen energy belongs to new energy.
Energy minerals include coal, oil, natural gas, oil shale, stone coal, uranium thorium and geothermal, etc., which belong to energy-carrying resources that can obtain light, heat and power energy directly or through conversion, and are indispensable production factors and very important material basis for promoting the progress of human society, promoting economic development and improving living conditions. >>>More
