How does wind energy fit then?
Or hydro electric dams?
Wind: The sun (a giant fusion reactor) heats the atmosphere which generates the wind (highly simplified).
Hydro: Driven by the water cycle where the sun plays a key role in the “evaporation, condensation, precipitation” process.
Wind is due to the asemetric effects of heating different parts of the globe different amounts. Hydro is from rain and snow which is evaporated with the sun
