Somewhat, at first it will cost you a lot of money. However if you invest and live in the same house that has the solar panels for 5+ years you will save lots of money in the long run. Greenhouse effiecency is all about investing.
Solar energy is 'free'. Collecting and using it is expensive. It is becoming more expansive and less expensive as technology improves and efficiency of the technology increases.

∙ 15y agoTypically Solar costs around $4~$7 per watt installed in a home or commercial building in the US where the 30% tax credit is available, as new technologies emerge that will continue to decline but at present, Solar panels are only about 10~12% efficient.

What is the item to make a plant grow?
water and solar energy
What form of energy starts photosynthesis?
Solar energy
How are solar panels and chloroplasts similar?
Solar Cells and chloroplasts are similar by absorbing the energy of the sun. Then it changes into energy, which powers the house electricity.A chloroplast is a miniature "solar collector," transforming light energy into chemical energy through photosynthesis. The green color of the disks is due to the presence of a pigment called chlorophyll that reacts with light.they both make plants liveso that people know hoe solar energy has been used.
How is solar energy helpful?
We need solar energy so that we can stop polluting our environment and prevent global warming. Solar Energy is also used in Farms to power up the Solar Cells to then convert the Solar Energy to Electricity and the Electricity heats up the Green House keeping the plants warm.
How does solar energy save natural resources?
Solar energy created electricity from sunlight. There are no resources used from the planet (apart from the materials used to make the panels).
Why is solar energy expensive?
Solar energy is so expensive because it is a relatively new concept for energy. The technology involved with bringing that energy to consumers is expensive.

How do you make a sentence with the word solar?
Solar energy is good. But it is very expensive.
Is it expensive to install and operate solar energy?
No. It is expensive to install solar energy devices and farms, but operating costs are very low.
If sunlight is free why is electrical energy from solar cells expensive?
Because the technology for Solar cell power is expensive
What do you need to collect solar energy?
a solar pannel they are prety expensive though
How expensive is photovoltaic solar energy?
alot of chicken
Is solar energy cheap or expensive?
Expensiveeeeeeeee (: x
Why is solar energy difficult to harness?
It is difficult because the solar panels are really expensive.
What was solar energy in the past?
solar energy was the same as it is know but without all the expensive things like the cars , ect
What type of energy plants are expensive to built?
tis type of energy plant is expensive to built is. is it solar , nuclear or both
Is solar energy too expensive to use?
yes, but not if you do it from home
