The characteristics of a sustainable energy is to be renewable energy and have a low environmental impact.
Sustainable energy sources are those that are readily replenished and that have impacts that are acceptable;  it must be used at or below the rate of replenishment rate.
Answer 2.
What types are commonly used?
Hydroelectric are commonly used as renewable energy. 
In U.S. , Hydroelectric is accounted for 41% of electricity production by renewable sources.

It can be used in two ways: active technologies and passive technologies.
Pros: Solar energy is the most popular form of renewable energy.
The methods and process of it are simple, safe, no noise, and clean.
Cons: It is intermittent and expensive to start. It causes long payback time, so it takes long time to save enough money in operation costs to pay for equipment.]]> 2021-07-14 01:08:13 UTC https://padlet.com/GlobalLaunch/cj75z3y1q7woq7pr/wish/1648402728 Answer https://padlet.com/GlobalLaunch/cj75z3y1q7woq7pr/wish/1648402848 ・True cost pricing... Factoring in the health and environmental costs of fossil fuel energy raises its costs above renewables, making them the most cost-effective choice
・Diversification...The use of a variety of renewable options will better meet energy needs as the strengths of one help offset the weaknesses of another

-hydroelectric dams: When a large river is dammed, a reservoir is formed behind the dam. The buildup of water in the reservoir creates an enormous amount of pressure; water diverted from the top of the dam flows through long pipes, called penstocks, to turbines below. As the water rushes past the curved blades of the turbines, they spin and generate electricity.
