What are some limitations of solar energy?

Some limitations of solar energy include its intermittent nature (dependent on sunlight availability), requiring energy storage solutions for continuous power supply. The initial cost of installing solar panels can be expensive, although it has been decreasing in recent years. Solar energy generation can also be affected by weather conditions and location, with certain areas receiving less sunlight.
