The scope of this paper is to analyse the efficacy of non-conventional sources of energy. The object of this paper is to suggest credible alternatives to meet the energy demands of developing India.
India is a developing country and it faces the problem of ever increasing energy demands. Fossil fuels are the primary source of energy but there aren’t enough reserves of fossil fuels to meet the energy demands. Fossil fuels will ultimately run out and the mankind will be left with no option but to switch to alternative fuels.
Alternative sources of energy are non-conventional sources of energy, that is other than fossil fuels. They are clean and never-ending sources. However, they initially require high investment costs and the technology to harness renewable sources of energy has barely hit puberty. Nevertheless, they have potential to overtake fossil fuels as primary sources of energy when there will be none to cater the needs of the masses.
