There are many types of renewable energy. Most of these renewable energies depend in one way or another on sunlight. Hydroelectric and wind power are the direct result of differential heating of the Earth's surface which leads to air moving about (wind) and precipitation making as the air is lifted. Solar energy is the direct conversion of sunlight using panels or collectors. Biomass energy is saved sunlight contained in plants. Other renewable energies that do not based on sunlight are geothermal energy, which is an outcome of radioactive decay in the crust combined with the original heat of approving the Earth, and tidal energy, which is a conversion of gravitational energy.
