Solar Energy itself does not reduce the use of fossil fuels. But the use of solar energy should hopefully reduce the need of fossil fuels to create energy, so therefore the more we can use solar power as an energy source instead of fossil fuels, the more we reduce the use of fossil fuels.
Fossil fuels are an indirect form of solar energy because solar energy was used to sustain the plant life,through photosynthesis, that is now now part of the fossil fuels.
Solar and wind energy don't expel CO2 (carbon dioxide) into the atmosphere. Fossil fuels do. Also wind and solar energy are renewable energies. Fossil fuels will eventually run out.

Ummm.....
They reduce the need for generated energy - by utilising the free, clean energy from the sun. The more we generate power by solar (and other 'green' methods) - the less we'll be reliant on fossil fuels. This will reduce the pollution generated by coal & gas-powered power stations.
Fossil Fuels are used to heat buildings, floors, and walls. Solar Energy can be used in place of fossil fuels and does not require them. Therefore fossil fuel use can be reduced by using solar heating.

Solar energy is a potential alternative for fossil fuels. It is a renewable source of energy and will be available as long as the sun lasts.
Ummm.....
The hydrocarbons used in the fossil fuel are the product of photosynthesis, that took place in the plants of carboniferous age. Since photosynthesis require solar energy, these fossil fuels have also been derived from solar energy.
because solar energy is renewable (never gets used up), solar energy is energy from the sun, it will never run out....fossil fuels such as oil coal and gas are getting used up fast, they are non renewable and so it is a big issue....so using solar energy is good to fossil fuel because then the fossil fuels will not get used up.
Yes, the energy in fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) came originally from the sun.
its
using solar energy instead of natural gas to heat water
They have been the most efficient energy source available
