Why are there more coal power plants then solar power plants?

There are more coal plants than solar plants because the cost per Mega-Watt is much less using coal than solar power, and currently coal is more efficient. The problem today is that in a environmentally conscious society coal is a 'dirty' fuel, and solar power is clean. That is why environmentalists are pushing for more Solar (and wind) power generation.


Is solar power better then coal power?

Solar power is more environment friendly than coal power. Solar power is, however, more expensive than coal power.


Who uses solar power?

Lots of people use solar power EG. businesses, homes, air force bases and even the town where the athletes stayed for the 2000 Olympics was entirely solar powered and still is today now more than 3500 homes in that town are solar powered.


How are solar cells today superior to solar cells of the 1980?

Advances in technology - coupled with the discovery of more efficient materials, make today's solar cells much more efficient than earlier models.


Why geothermal energy widely accepeted today?

Geothermal energy is widely accepted today because it is renewable, reliable, and has a low environmental impact. It provides a constant source of energy, is not subject to weather fluctuations like solar or wind power, and its development and operation do not produce greenhouse gas emissions. Additionally, geothermal energy has the potential to reduce dependence on fossil fuels and contribute to a more sustainable energy mix.


Why is solar power popular in Australia?

Because People Are Rich And They Have More And More Solar Panels And People Have Money To Buy It That's Why Solar Power Is Popular In Australia .


Why are fossil fuels more widely used than solar energy?

Fossil fuels have historically been more widely used due to their easy accessibility, established infrastructure, and lower upfront costs. Solar energy requires significant initial investment in solar panels and technology, making it less accessible for many people and industries. Additionally, fossil fuels have typically been more reliable and consistent sources of energy compared to solar power, which is dependent on weather conditions.


How do you gain power from scarcity?

solar power as in scare area sun rays are more so there we will get solar power OK.


Why is solar energy used widely today?

Solar energy is used more because Al Gore made all the liberals believe that global warming is an actual threat to the earth. It is fact that more scientist know that global warming is not a real problem. ^THIS IS NOT TRUE BUT JUST A PILE OF BULLSH*T^


How are solar cells today superior to solar cells of the 1980S?

Advances in technology - coupled with the discovery of more efficient materials, make today's solar cells much more efficient than earlier models.


Is solar power better than geothermal energy?

There really isn't a "better" type of energy but solar doesn't affect the Earth as much as geothermal energy because we always get the sun but with geothermal energy we have to use more resources. But then again if we have solar energy then when it's dark we don't have the sun to power things unless we stored it which is very complex. so as i said there really isn't a better energy source.


Is solar power more or less expensive than hydro power?

no no it is not
