1RENEWABLE ENERGY VS. COAL-FIRED POWER STATIONExecutive SummaryThe study deals with the argumentative contexts based on the preferences for renewable energyand coal-fired power stations. The comparisons between these two energy sources would bepresented in this study to make the insightful ideas about the future energy prospects. Theextensive research on the subject area explores the fact that in spite of few disadvantages, therenewable energy generation is significantly sustainable. In fact, the renewable energygeneration is quite opportune for increasing the employment rate in future. Therefore, thetechnological development is needed to be taken into consideration. More hands-on approachesundertaken in the energy policy development would help in mitigating the issues created due tothe renewable sources of energy. The ideas derived from the entire study determine that thefuture is quite linked with the renewable energy sources that create the opportunities for theenergy supply in future.

3RENEWABLE ENERGY VS. COAL-FIRED POWER STATIONIntroduction Renewable power sources have the potentiality to augment and supply the electricitygenerating systems based on the nuclear power and fossil fuels. According to Martin and Rice(2015), renewable energy is generally associated with the technologies that are designed toacquire the required energy from the different source. These sources are inexhaustible on thehuman timescales, such as solar energy, hydro energy, bio-energy, and geothermal energy. It isevident that electricity accounts for almost 40% of the total primary sources of energy. Theannual growth rate is up to 2.7%, which indicates that the demands for electricity grow fasterthan any other energy sources (Aph.gov.au, 2017). The debate regarding the demands ofrenewable energy is never ending. However, the study would develop the argumentative contextsbased on the preferences for renewable energy and coal-fired power stations. The comparisonsbetween these two energy sources would be presented in this study to make the insightful ideasabout the future energy prospects. Analysis of Renewable EnergyCountries like Australia is well endowed with the various ranges of the renewable energyresources, especially tidal in the north, wind in the south, solar system, and the geothermal in thecentre. The report obtained from Energy Strategies for the Clean Energy Future Groups studyhighlights that the renewable energies collected from the various sources could supply over halfof the Australian electricity by 2040 (Lenzen et al., 2016). In fact, it reduces almost 80% of theCO2 emissions from the generation of electricity. If it is calculated for the long term basis, it isnotable that the renewable energy could supply almost 100% of the entire grid electricity. Theuse of the renewable energy is one of the hottest debates in Australian parliament. It is stated that
