How does solar energy reduce the use of fossil fuels?

Most countries burn fossil fuels to generate electricity.If they used solar power to generate electricity, thenThey would not have to use so much fossil fuel.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.


What do solar panels replace?

coal, oil, and gas for electricity and transportation. Solar power and panels replace all fossil fuels and are much better for the earth.


How do solar panels help us reduce the amount of fossil fuels we use?

Solar panels produce electricity without greenhouse gas emissions and therefore we don't need to use fossil fuels as much?


How much of Ontario energy is generated from fossil fuels?

Approximately 60% of the energy generated in Ontario comes from fossil fuels, predominantly natural gas and nuclear power. Renewables such as hydroelectric, wind, and solar make up the remainder.


What are some renewable resources that could replace fossil fuels?

Solar power could be used to generate electricity instead of burning coal or oil.Dammed water could be used to generate electricity (Hydro-electric power) instead of burning fossil fuels.


Do power plants burn fossil fuels?

Some power plants do. Any plant that burns oil, coal, or gas from underground resources could be considered a "fossil fuel" plant. There are however nuclear, solar, hydro-electric and wind powered power plants.


Why are fossil fuels useful to the earth?

They can be used for power plants, gas and oil and MUCH MORE


How much energy is produced compare to fossil fuels?

well that depends compare to solar energy i think fossil fuels make the most energy out of any other kind of energy because they have coal, petroleum, oil and natural gas in wish solar energy depends on the sun and wind energy in the wind that is why fossil fuels produced more energy than any other.


Is solar power suitable in developing countries?

Yes, solar power is suitable for developing countries as it can provide access to electricity in remote areas that are not connected to the main power grid. It is also cost-effective in the long run due to the abundant sunlight in many developing regions. Additionally, solar power is environmentally friendly and helps reduce reliance on fossil fuels.


Why doesn't the government implement solar lighting as alternative to using electricity?

Solar power generally isn't as efficient as burning fossil fuels - it doesn't turn out as much power as older methods. In addition, there is a large investment in power generation methods like burning coal, that people are reluctant to just discard.


Does solar energy benefits the environment?

Yes. It uses much less energy from fossil fuels which are coal, oil, and natural gas. Instead, it uses sunlight which is a renewable resource. Fossil fuels are not a renewable resource. When Earth runs out, there is no more.


How much energy does Australia use in a year?

Australia uses fossil fuels (coal, oil, natural gas), solar energy, hydroelectric energy and wind-generated power.
