    Which of the following is non-renewable source of energy?

    The energy which we obtain from the sun is called solar energy or radiant energy. The sun's energy is stored in coal, natural gas, water and wind. Coal, oil, and natural gas are known as fossil fuels. Fossil fuels were formed over millions of years ago when the remains and fossils of prehistoric plants and animals sank to the bottom of swamps and oceans. These animal and plant remain were slowly covered and crushed by layers of rock, mud, sand, and water. The pressure of all those layers caused the plants and animals to break down and change into coal, oil and natural gas. We use the energy in these fossil fuels to make electricity. As of the year 2019, most of the energy we use comes from fossil fuels. However, fossil fuels are known as non-renewable sources of energy. They cannot be used over and over again. This means that one day they will run out! Which among the following is not a renewable source of energy?
