Solution

The correct option is C Solar energy

Based on the availability, resources are classified as renewable and non-renewable.

Renewable resources: These are the sources which can be replenished over a period of time. Examples: forest wood because wood can be grown by reforestation.

Non-renewable: these are the sources that cannot be renewed and available in limited quantities. Examples include coal, nuclear, oil, and natural gas

As solar energy is continuously available it falls under renewable sources of energy.
