    industries can keep using them indefinitely without fear of environmental damage or of running out of resources. Solar energy derives its power from photons of light which carry energy which can then be integrated into a household via photovoltaic cells; since the sun will continue to provide solar energy for millions of years, solar energy would be an excellent source of power. However, if used improperly renewable energy sources can sometimes be turned into non-renewable sources. One example…

    solar power compared to the diesel fired peaking is lower. The only problem being that storage is not as readily available. But its not all bad news, as humans have begun to see the change in the earth, actions have been takin to begin the change from the fossil to the new alternative energy sources. Examples of our hope could be seen in a 24.9% drop in coal generated electricity since 2007, while in the same time frame an increase in wind generated power of 309% and solar generated power of…
