It is expected to surpass the population of China by\n2024. This is the reason that India\u2019s energy demand has been <br>\nrapidly growing for the last two decades. Due to such a high energy demand,\npollution is also increasing simultaneously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There exist many types of pollution like air, water, noise and soil.\nNowadays, the quality of air and water has degraded. To save our planet Earth\nand to increase its lifespan, many countries have taken decision to use clean\nenergy. Similarly, India has also decided to march towards clean energy. Solar\nEnergy, Wind Energy, Bio Energy, Geothermal Energy are the sources of clean\nenergy or renewable energy, which are replenished or renewed over a period of\ntime. Renewable energy often provides energy in four important areas:\nelectricity generation, air and water heating\/cooling, transportation and rural\nenergy services. The advantages of using clean energy are that it is efficient,\npollution free, helps in reducing the amount of greenhouse gases that we\nrelease in the air. The installation charges may be high but after that it is\nfree for lifetime. There are many other benefits like if we use clean energy\nfuels, these will automatically improve the public health. Once the pollution\nlevel starts falling down, health of people will definitely improve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are much more dependent on foreign supplies for oil, coal and\npetrol but the fact is that our country has such a vast renewable resource that\nwe can utilise&nbsp;it. For example, hydro power is a great source of\ndomestically-produced power that generates power directly to the grid. The same\ncan be said about solar, wind and geothermal energy sources. Geothermal energy\nfrom underground reservoirs of steam and hot water can be tapped to generate\nelectricity or to heat and cool buildings directly which means geothermal\nenergy can be accessed throughout the year, making it both renewable and\nreliable.\n\nFormer United Nations Secretary- General Mr.&nbsp;Ban Ki-moon has said <br>\nthat renewable energy has the ability to lift the poorest nations to new <br>\nlevels of prosperity. India has such a diversified culture as well as renewable\nresources or clean sources that can be used in a proper way and uplift the\ncountry\u2019s status from a developing country to a developed country.\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>India is the seventh largest country in the world in terms of area and second largest in terms of population.
