Background/Objectives: Owing to the popular myth that the non-conventional energy is economically unviable, the paper deliberates on the feasibility of these alternate sources of clean energy.
Methods/Statistical Analysis: The present article explores the various avenues in non-conventional energy such as solar energy, tidal, bio-gas, geo-thermal, ocean/marine etc and the efforts by the present day government in India.
Results: The necessity to shift to clean energy is compelling due to global pressure and stand taken by India as a leading developing nation of 1.2 billion people in the international forums. Moreover taking into account the huge demand for domestic/industrial power, India's interests also lies in replenishable energy in contrast to polluting fossil fuels which are limited in quantum.

Background/Objectives: Disposal of waste was never taken seriously in urban/rural areas. The recent Swachh Bharat Abhiyan initiated by the Hon'ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modiji has offered an immense opportunity to revolutionise the waste management practices being adopted in the country into a golden opportunity for producing energy from waste.
Methods/Statistical Analyses: This paper discusses in detail the various prevailing systems for converting the waste into productive energy.
Results: In a developing economy like India with huge gulf between electricity demand and supply, schemes for converting waste to energy needs to be rigorously pursued.
