Sunlight is not a non-renewable energy source.
Non-renewable energy sources are those that exist in a fixed amount and are consumed much faster than nature can replenish them. Coal, Oil (Petroleum), and Nuclear fuel (like Uranium) are considered non-renewable. Sunlight, however, is a continuously available resource on a human timescale, making it a renewable energy source.
Renewable energy sources are replenished naturally and include solar, wind, hydro, geothermal, and biomass energy. They are considered sustainable alternatives to fossil fuels and nuclear energy.
