What is Renewable Energy? Renewable energy comes from sources or processes that are constantly replenished. These sources of energy include solar energy, wind energy, geothermal energy, and hydroelectric power.. Renewable sources are often associated with green energy and clean energy, but there are some subtle differences between these three energy types.
