Energy Sources

An energy source refers to the various sources, whether natural or artificial, which are primarily used for the generation of electricity by power plants. Production of electricity by power plants demands the consumption of energy sources in large quantities, which cannot be fulfilled by traditional sources, such as coal and wood. Also, the mere usage of such sources leads to their depletion at a much faster rate.
