Wind energy is better in terms of being a cheaper energy source and for its unlimited supply, since it is renewable. However, potential sites to use wind energy are limited, cost of power storage is very high, and it is less controllable, so a backup source of energy is necessary.

Why is solar power better than fossil fuels?

Solar power is better than fossil fuels for several reasons. Solar power is a renewable energy source that produces no greenhouse gas emissions during operation, unlike fossil fuels which contribute to air pollution and climate change. Additionally, solar power has a lower environmental impact in terms of water usage and land degradation compared to fossil fuel extraction and combustion.


Which of the following is not a renewable energy source solar energy wind energy geothermal energy fossil fuels?

Fossil Fuels. The sun, wind and heat from the earth core is continuously being produced. Fossil Fuels were created over a long period of time and required a lot of heat and pressure to be created which is why they are not considered to be renewable.


Why is solar power better than burning fossil fuels?

Solar power is better than burning fossil fuels because it does not produce greenhouse gas emissions or air pollutants that contribute to climate change and harm human health. Additionally, solar power is a renewable energy source that is abundant and sustainable, unlike fossil fuels which are finite and contribute to resource depletion. Solar power also helps to reduce reliance on imported energy sources and promotes energy independence.


What kind of energy do you start with when burning fossil fuels?

Fossil fuels are a source of chemical energy. Chemically conbining the hydrocarbons in fossil fuels with air is combustion and primarily produces carbon dioxide and water. (There are many more details of the chemistry of the specific fossil fuels and many other results of their combustion besides the predominant gasses of water and carbon dioxide.)


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.
