Simply because it's clean - it doesn't release harmful pollutants while it's generating. Fossil fuels produce a huge amount of waste products, nuclear power generates tonnes of nuclear waste which takes hundreds of years to become safe !
Wind, water and solar energies are all pollutant-free.
It really depends on your definition of "eco friendly",
but -
it doesn't run out
it doesn't do much damage to the environment
its cheap..
Worst to best way to generate electricity: 1.)Nuclear Energy 2.)Fossil Fuels 3.)Solar Energy 4.)Wind Energy 5.)Hydroelectric 6.)Geothermal Energy

This is not necessarily true. In reality there is no straight answer to which is best. Each have advantages and disadvantages. Just because solar power is used more domestically does not mean it is the most effective and certainly does not mean it produces a lot of energy. Most solar panels are, at best, 40% efficiency and large installations only generate enough power because there is a lot of panels / reflectors and they collectively generate power. In general solar panels are the cheapest alternative, at least for a house, with 2.2KW systems costing $18,000 approximately, with even cheaper smaller systems out there. But lets be honest, the only reason they are seen more on the roofs of houses is because it would be impractical to put a conventional power plant there. Most people do not have enough room for anything else. So solar energy is not actually the undisputed best alternative source of energy. Its all a matter of perspective.
Since the sun won't die out while humans are still on the planet and you only need solar panels to use it, you don't have to pay as much on bills because you generate your own electricity and heat. However it may not work as well in countries with less sunlight generally very northerly or southerly areas , but in most countries it is a good way to be more economical.

The best way to produce electricity is by Solar energy . Solar energy is freely available but only thing is that the implements and instruments used to generate electricity are very costly and they are not much developed. There is also a method to generate electricity ie. by geo thermal energy In this method we can do it by the heat of earth. Thankyou
Solar energy is best suited to desert areas with almost unlimited sunshine.
Solar power would be the best way to generate energy for use on Mars.
My best guest would be Solar Energy. Solar panels collect sunlight and turn it into electricity.

The best source of much of world's energy is the sun's energy, which provides the earth light and heat. Solar technology directly transforms the sun's unlimited energy into electrical energy. That is why we can consider solar energy as the best source of generating electricity.
It really depends. Why? There are many technologies that put to use of alternative energy to generate electricity. However, there are many advantages and disadvantages to the situation as well. Currently, nuclear energy is said to be the most efficient in generating energy. However, there are many possible consequences such as leakage of radiation and so on. Similarly, solar panels are seemingly good. However, since they are not as efficient, and they require large amount of space, there is a limitation where it can go. Thus, it really depends on how u define "best", whether which generates the most electricity or which one has more advantages than disadvantages.
Photovoltaics are best known for generating electric power using solar panels. The process uses solar cells to convert energy absorbed by the panels from the sun's UV rays and converts the energy into a flow of electrons. This is caused by photons of light that excite the electron particles into a higher state of energy, allowing them to carry a charge for an electric current.
Solar panels are not dependent upon the sun to shine from a cloud free sky. Solar Panels generates power on a cloudy day too. They just do not generate power at night. They do generate more power the brighter it is though. Sunlight from a clear sky is the best.
When you install solar hot water panels or evacuated tubes on your roof and you get hot water free, that is one of the best examples of how you can take advantage of solar energy and also cut down on the amount of gas or electricity that you use.
