Anything that can be used to satisfy a need or has value can be called a resource.
Wind and Solar Energy Resources
Resources are of 3 kinds- natural, human-made and human.
Natural Resources are drawn from nature and are used without much modification. Examples include the air we breathe, water in our rivers and lakes, soil, minerals, and so on.
At times, natural substances become resources only after their original form has changed.
Human Resources refers to the number (quantity) and abilities (mental and physical) of people.
Power or energy plays a vital role in our lives. We also need power for industry, agriculture, transport, communication and defence.
Power resources may be broadly categorized as conventional and non-conventional resources.
Conventional sources of energy are those which have been in common use for a long time. Firewood and fossil fuels are the two main conventional energy sources.
