What is environmental impact of solar energy?

The environmental impact of solar energy is generally positive, as it produces clean, renewable energy without direct greenhouse gas emissions during operation. However, the manufacturing and disposal of solar panels can involve the use of hazardous materials and energy-intensive processes, which can lead to environmental concerns. Additionally, large-scale solar installations can disrupt local ecosystems and land use. Overall, when managed responsibly, the benefits of solar energy in reducing fossil fuel reliance and lowering carbon emissions typically outweigh these impacts.


Environmental issues with using solar power?

Solar Power is good for the environment because it reduces air pollution, conserves energy and counteracts greenhouse gases. If more people use solar power for any sort of use than the future for the planet will be in good health for our children and our children's children and so on.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of using these resources geothermal and Biomass and Hydro power and solar and wind?

the advantages of solar power system, over geothermal, biomass, and hydro, are a) availability- the sun which is one of the most important success factor in solar is always abundantly available, than in theses other power system. b) clean and cheap-the externalities of all these mentioned power sources are not clean or cheap, their after effect costs much more than what is paid by the consumers c) environmental impact- only solar power system is environmental friendly in all the above mentioned sources of power, green gas, damage to agriculture land, ecological imbalances, from all of them can only be imagined. d)running and maintenance- cost of running and maintenance of solar power system is near zero, while all other for these power system, their running and maintenance cost increases as they get older. i wish you can get my exposition on power systems compared, it answers this question in detail, with dates, tables and graphs.
