The benefits include:
Reduced operating cost (Approx. 80% cheaper to "refuel" than a gas car)
Low noise
Simpler and fewer mechanical components
Arguably, reduced maintenance cost, and increased reliability could be included as benefits, but both claims are debatable.
During normal use, the only parts on an electric car that should need periodic replacement are the tires, brake pads, and batteries, however the cost is a point of debate due to the high price of replacing the batteries normally found in electric cars.
Also reliability, while as a whole is normally better on an electric, is still influenced by chance. You can get lucky with a trouble-free gas car, and unlucky with a finicky electric.
The drawbacks, for the time being are mostly focused on range of driving, and recharge time, essentially limiting how far you can drive every day. Most (non-hybrid) electric cars have a (maximum) range of less than 40 miles between charges (Though some manufacturers recently are starting to suggest close to 100), and should not be driven more than about 70% of their maximum range to prevent premature failure of the batteries. Also driving up hills drains power very, very quickly, and can shorten the time between charges up to 50% on unfavorable roads.
The other drawback is the time it takes to charge it back up. A gas car, when out of fuel can be refilled in a few minutes by pumping more fuel into the tank, an electric car takes between 4 and 8 hours to charge on a normal house-hold outlet. Some cars can be equipped with special chargers to charge them up quicker, (1-2 hours) but those normally cannot be plugged into a normal outlet, and instead require special installation in the garage where they will be kept.

I think the benefits and drawbacks of using an ATM card will damage your bank account like the money you have in the bank could turn into negatives and put you debt.
you go to your dad and slap him on the face
trolololol
well its flippin simple losers
The drawbacks to using diet shakes may outweigh the benefits to some consumers as it can cause bloating, constipation, and dehydration among other side effects.
Hydroelectric power produces electricity by using water.
One of the benefits to using a residential wind generator is lower electricity costs. Wind Generators also are environmentally friendly. If there should ever be a power outage, you would not be affected. You can generate power and then use a smaller amount of electricity provided by the power company. If you generate more electricity than you use, you can sell the excess to the power company.
One benefit of a solar power system is that it is clean energy. Using the power of the sun to create electricity does not produce any pollution. Another benefit of solar power systems is the savings on the electricity bill.
The benefits of having a solar powered bird bath are for example no cost for electricity and no issues with getting power to the desired place of the bird bath.
Solar power would lower an energy bill exponentially because instead of using electricity, it would use the sun's rays to power household items. Not only does it save you money, but it also saves the earth.
