The amount of energy - or more precisely, power - to fuel a city is the same, regardless of the energy source. Please note that with many natural sources, such as sunlight, you need to store energy somewhere - in the case of sunlight, you don't get any power at night, and the amount of power gets reduced when it is cloudy. Similarly in the case of wind energy, the amount of power available can get close to zero when there is not much wind. So in those cases, assuming you want to rely EXCLUSIVELY on solar power for example, you need to provide a means to store the energy somewhere. But when solar power is used in combination with other types of energy, this may not be a problem.

Which would be better for on the moon fuel cell or solar energy?
solar energy
Is fuel in the form of wood an indirect source of solar energy?
No. Solar energy comes from the sun.
Why is the ability to produce solar energy is limited?
disadvantages of solar energy opposed to fossil fuel?
What can solar fuel do?
I am not that sure on what it can do but i do know that solar fuel comes from the solar system akasun!!! But you can get a solar light for a garden and a solar calculator .Which their energy comes from the sun!!!
What energy is used to fuel the process of photosynthesis?
Solar energy.
The fuel driving the atmosphere is?
solar energy
What type of energy that you cannot get from fossil fuel?
solar energy, if we didn't have solar, get ready to say bye-bye to earth, we will all be dead. We need solar energy before we can even hav fossil fuel energy. (wind energy is another one)
What type of energy resource is solar energy?
Solar energy takes the form of radiation. Solar panels may allow this solar energy to be converted to heat or to electricity. (Electricity is not a fuel or even energy: it is a means of transferring energy).
What kind of fuel does the solar car use?
The fuel a solar car uses is energy from the sun converted into electricity using solar cells.
How much solar can a fuel a whole city?

How do solar cars refuel?
Solar cars refuel just by regaining energy from the sun. They use all of that energy to create fuel in order to run. Some solar cars refuel by using wind energy! Solar cars gain energy from the sun or from the wind to store the energy in their fuel tanks and they use up the energy to make fuel that allows them to travel for long distances! Solar cars have no limits on how many times they can regain energy from the sun or from the wind!
What are non-example of fossil fuel?
solar energy
