'renewable-powered' originates from the combination of 'renewable' and 'powered', where 'renewable' comes from the Latin word 'renovare', meaning 'to renew', and 'powered' is derived from the Old French 'poeir', meaning 'to be able'.

'renewable' changed from the Old French word 'renoveler' and eventually became the modern English word 'renewable'. 'Powered' evolved from the Old French 'poeir' to the modern English 'powered'.

Initially, 'renewable' meant 'capable of being renewed', and 'powered' meant 'having power'. Over time, 'renewable-powered' evolved to mean 'powered by renewable energy sources'.
