What sources are catagorized as "low carbon" vs "renewable" vs "fossil fuels"?

Renewable energy production is based on renewable energy sources such as wind and water flow, sunshine, and geothermal energy. Low-carbon energy production means that the production involves a very low level of greenhouse gas emissions, such as in nuclear power production.
