Decrease your Carbon Footprint
Solar power can help reduce CO2 emissions mainly by being a clean and renewable source of energy. Solar power is not dependent on burning fossil fuels or other products; instead, it uses electrons from captured from the sun's energy for energy creation.
How can Solar power reduce CO2 emissions? Solar power can help reduce CO2 emissions mainly by being a clean and renewable source of energy. Solar power is not dependent on burning fossil fuels or other products; instead, it uses electrons from captured from the sun’s energy for energy creation. Therefore, solar energy does not create greenhouse gases for energy production at your house. It’s been shown that of energy production methods including Coal, gas, oil that renewable energy such as PV (photovoltaic) solar and wind energy have a far lesser carbon footprint. The reason renewable sources have a footprint at all is due to the emissions created during the production of the equipment during manufacturing. The number is extremely low considering that the emissions from the one-time production of the equipment is spread out over an estimated 30 to 40-year life of the panels (for PV solar).
In summary, solar power has an affordable front-end cost, saves money monthly on energy bills, and cuts down on the CO2 emissions that affect our environment. An investment in solar power makes sense all around.
