This dimension names the energy source that a specific project actually uses. Wikipedia notes that "variable renewable energy sources are those that have a fluctuating nature, such as wind power and solar power," while others such as "dammed hydroelectricity, bioenergy, or geothermal power" are more controllable. Browsing this way collects every project that uses the same source.
