The study introduces the non-conventional energy source of India that is available in the development of infrastructure. On the other hand, the power sources are one of the major constituents of the infrastructure. There are scopes of research and development in the non-conventional renewable energy sectors that are related to the future development of scientific utilisation. The power plant is based on renewable energy that does not have any fuel consumption and it runs from without any cost. While using the non-conventional energy they are involved in helping and conserving the foreign exchange and generating local employment.
Non-conventional renewable energy source
India is blessed with the non-conventional energy sources included in sunlight, water, wind and biomass. Moreover, the growing need for energy has resulted in the country becoming dependent on the fossil fuel that is included in oil, coal, and gas. In this regard, the potential shortage of gases and oil has raised an issue because of the rising prices over the exploitation of energy.
Geothermal energy
Geothermal energy refers to the electricity and heat that are produced by using the heat from the interior of the earth. The mentioned contexts are related to the geothermal energy that exists because the earth is growing progressively and it increases the heat from the depth of the earth. Moreover, geothermal is considered as the gradients of the high temperature that are found on the depth of the shallow.
Non-conventional energy sources
The sources of energy are produced from nature that are considered as non-conventional energy sources or renewable sources of energy. Furthermore, the sources are included in solar energy, wind energy, as well as tidal energy. Moreover, these sources of energy are entirely used for a long period of time. However, the different sources of non-conventional sources are included in solar energy that is available and free sources of energy that are commonly used from prehistoric times. Therefore, the estimation of solar energy is equivalent to over 15000 thousand times the annual energy consumption. On the other hand, wind energy is commonly used from wind power to produce electricity and further the kinetic energy of the wind is converted to electrical energy. In this regard, the mentioned context is related to the Bio energy that is derived from biomass and it becomes one of the key energy resources for global sustainable development. Along with this, other unconventional sources of energy are in the ocean energy which consists of two types such as thermal from the sun heat and mechanical energy from the ocean tides waves. Along with this, the present situation of the non-conventional energy sources was created in the ministry of energy in the year 1982 and that is included in the new renewable energy. According to the report, India has installed a renewable energy capacity that has grown at the annual rate of 23% which rises from 3900 MW in 2002-03 which is about 2400 MW in the year 2011-12.
A Conventional source of energy
“Conventional sources of energy” are considered as non-renewable energy through any natural procedures. The sources of mentioned energy are such as oil, nuclear, natural gas or coal. Along with this, the mentioned energy is the natural energy resources that are present in deficient quantities, as well as this energy, are being used for a long period. The mentioned energy is fabricated from decaying matter over 100 million years. The mentioned energy can be consumed completely because of over-consumption excluding hydro power. Moreover, it is used majorly in an extensive manner in comparison to “Non- Conventional sources of energy”.
Conventional and non-conventional sources of energy
Sources of energy are produced from fossil fuels, CNG, coal, as well as from natural gas. Along with this, the conventional sources are involved by the non-renewable energy sources that are included in the natural process. Moreover, these resources are available in a limited quantity and resources are classified in commercial and non-commercial energy resources.
Non-conventional
The non-conventional sources of energy are included in Wind energy, solar energy, ocean energy and tidal energy. On the other hand, the mentioned context is the resources that are renewable energy and energy sources that are eco friendly that are considered in nature. Furthermore, these energy sources do not increase pollution.
Conclusion
The study concludes the non-conventional energy sources of India include the sources of the energy that are included in Biogas, wind, geothermal, tidal energy and ocean energy. On the other hand, Non-conventional energy sources are involved in exploring the sources properties of the earth’s surface and the environment of India . Moreover, the mentioned context is related to the resources that are available in India and that are used for a long period of time.
