Abstract
Energy security, environment and economy are the three major pillars of a country. These parameters not only secure a better quality of life for the citizens but also protect the country against an unwanted threat and economic crises. The energy need in India is primarily fulfilled by burning of the fossil fuels, but their reserves are limited and may deplete very soon. Also, they emit a large amount of CO2 gas in the environment which is a key driver for the global warming. Therefore, to sustain the economy and protect the environment, India is focusing on the use of renewable energy; particularly solar and wind energy. In this article we have assessed the potential of these two energy sources in terms of material availability, waste generated and its disposal. At the end we have compared it with the well-established nuclear energy technology. Finding the future of a technology based on the raw material availability and its final treatment is necessary to make a self-reliant and sustainable technology, as India is progressing towards the same.
