Energy generation refers to the process of producing energy from various sources to meet the demand for electricity, heat, or mechanical power. It includes the generation of energy from renewable sources such as solar, wind, hydro, geothermal, and biomass, as well as from non-renewable sources such as fossil fuels (coal, oil, natural gas) and nuclear power. The choice of energy generation sources has significant implications for greenhouse gas emissions, air pollution, and sustainability.
