What are the examples of global partnerships for the sustainable development goals? Solar Energy: The greatest advantage of solar ener gy is that it is completely free and is available in limitless supply. Both of these factors provide a huge benefit to consumers and help reduce pollution. Replacing non- renewable energy with this type of energy is both environmentally and financially effective.
Wind Energy: Wind energy is another readily available energy source. Using the power of wind energy needs the use of windmills; However, due to construction cost and finding a suitable location, this kind of energy is meant to serve more than just the individual.
