for a science project, i need to answer the following questions;
Are there any harmful wastes produced by this technology?
Does this technology consume natural resources which can not be renewed?
Will natural habitats be adversely affected by this technology?
Are there any concerns to public health and safety?
any suggestions on where i could find these facts? aside from google…
A good solar hot water panel system is able to provide an average household with around a … useful information from Wikipedia on solar hot water panels.

why india has not been able to take up solar energy power generators and devices at a faster rate?
That fully depends on the budget that India has. Indian Govt. is also not that interested in developing nation’s facilities.
Will rate the best answer thank’s.
The only advantage of solar energy is it allows those who champion it to feel "superior" to those who don’t.
The main disadvantages of solar energy are its unsustainable subsidy costs and poor reliability.
Solar generating currently receives $24.30 per megawatt-hour (mWh) in subsidies. Natural gas electricity generating receives $0.25 per mWh in subsidies; coal electricity generating receives $0.45 per mWh in subsidies. If the subsidies were reduced to $0.70 per mWh solar generating would be history.
Solar generating is only productive for approximately 8 hours a day – or less. Electricity can’t be stored in tanks like oil or natural gas. Batteries are required for storing electricity and they are expensive, wear out and require replacement and can, under the right conditions, suffer a catastrophic failure by exploding.

Well theres a couple of people on my street having solar panels installed on to their buildings and i went further into this and found out that there quite expensive so i was wondering how could i build one my self ? cheapest way possible please.
you can buy the cells and assemble on a flat frame yourself..
I spent 200$…and hooked up inverters with a deep cell battery bank….
I now have the electric company pay me.
Take that you Public Utility.!!!!!
I need help, my science project is due and i need to find some enviromental facts and what do some experts say about it???? please help me!!
Solar energy is energy from sun light. Either by heating water or creating electricity with solar panels. Environmentalist oppose solar power. But then environmentalist oppose everything

What are the good things about solar power?
I need not just the fact but ALSO THE PROOFS (ex. the efficiency raised from 7–8% to 15–20%.)
energy created passively from a natural process with no emissions into water or air
relative consistency and abundance given a clear day
available over most heavily populated regions. Polar regions are not practical for solar power, but not highly populated either.
