Solar Energy Cells in Space
The space station uses solar energy.
People already depend on solar energy to naturally heat pools and greenhouses.
Advantages
• Renewable – The sunlight will not run out for billions of years.
• Non-pollutant – Energy from the sun does not cause or increase pollution.
Disadvantages
• It is expensive to make and maintain solar panels.
• Production of solar panels can create a dangerous waste.
Overall
• Solar Energy is an alternative way to provide electricity and power to our communities.
• People should invest in using renewable resources and get away from consuming fossil fuels.
• I will look for ways to make a difference through supporting solar energy.
