A village decides to switch from burning coal for electricity to using wind turbines and solar panels. What is the main scientific advantage of this non-conventional energy switch?
Non-conventional sources will run out faster than coal.
Non-conventional sources produce large amounts of smoke and ash.
Non-conventional sources are inexhaustible and do not cause environmental pollution.
Non-conventional sources require no technology to harness.
Solution
Wind and solar energy are non-conventional energy sources that are infinite in supply and cause minimal environmental pollution compared to conventional fossil fuels like coal.
