Bill Said:

What are the issues in using Solar Energy?

We Answered:

solar efficiency is low, cost is high, the area needed for a significant power output is quite large, best places for it are far away from population centers where the power is needed, power output is not easily throttleable or storable and cannot be ramped up and down to meet instantaneous demand, and the sun does not shine all the time, necessitating a conventional power plant to be on standby at all times to make up for any demand that outstrips solar power supply..
