Detailed Solution

Renewable energy is produced from renewable resources like sunshine, wind, tides, and other natural phenomena. These forms of energy are more environmentally friendly and environmentally sustainable. The price of establishing the facility is one of the main disadvantages.

(a) The wind:

1. Wind energy farms can only be built where the wind blows for the majority of the year.
2. In order to sustain the needed speed of the turbine, the wind speed must be more than 15 km/h.
3. A substantial area of land is needed to establish wind farms.
These are the restrictions on wind energy production.
(b) Energy extraction restrictions for waves: The waves are produced by powerful winds sweeping over the ocean. Only in places where the waves are exceptionally powerful would wave energy be a practical idea.
(c) Tidal energy extraction is constrained by the places that can support such structures.

Hence, the correct answer is option D.
