Hi
Today I thought we would have a look at the pros and cons of solar energy, please take a look and add to the list via the comment box below and see how many more pros or cons we can come up with:
Advantages And Disadvantages Of Solar Energy
Advantages
- There is virtually an unlimited supply of solar energy for us to use and it’s renewable. This signifies that our trust on fossil fuels can be decreased in direct proportion by the quantity of solar energy that we consume.
- Solar energy is an excellent alternative energy source as there’s no pollution generated while it is being utilised so consequently each time we use solar energy we reduce pollution.
- There is no cost involved with using solar power other that the price of constructing the components, buying and installing. After your initial investment there is no additional cost associated with its use.
- Solar energy is flexible and expandable. This means that you can expand a solar electric system to fulfill your needs.
- As our use of solar energy gains, our demand on fossil fuels reduces. This will prolong the time before our supply of fossil fuels runs out.
- There is no pollution linked with the use of solar power. No greenhouse gasses so consequently, no pollution.
- A solar electric system installed in a home could potentially eliminate over 30 tons of greenhouse gas emissions over its lifetime.
- Using solar energy is a silent procedure. No noise pollution.Whilst heating appliances use fossil fuels there is always the danger of a cracked heat exchanger, which causes CO2 poisoning. This is not a problem with solar energy use.
- Solar power is the most dependable way to supply electricity to isolated places where the price associated with installing power lines makes it impractical.
Disadvantages
- Potentially large areas of land are needed for mass solar energy projects.
- Not many places in the world have got adequate constant and intense sunlight to make commercial use of solar energy practical.
- If you live in a region where there is restricted amounts of sunshine it may be difficult to sustain a constant supply of solar energy.
So there we have it the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages so if you would like to find out more about solar energy and how to help save the planet take a look here. CLICK HERE
