Question

Solar energy is the .......... source of energy.

• A. Conventional
• B. Non conventional
• C. Man made
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is B Non conventional

Energy generated by using wind, tides, solar, geothermal heat, and biomass is known as non-conventional energy. Solar energy is an inexhaustible non-conventional resource. There are three methods of harnessing solar energy- direct heating (e.g., solar cookers), thermoelectric conversion or solar thermal power plants, for example, steam generation and photovoltaic conversion.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.
