Solar Power Energy

Kimberly Said:

Which one is better? Solar power energy, biomass, or wind for a resouce insted of oil?-?

We Answered:

Definitely, it will depend on the location. Many areas are definitely suited for solar such as deserts as some have mentioned. In Austin (Texas), where sun is common and plentiful, many houses have solar panels that either minimize or eliminate their need for power from the "power grid".

Wind power is also an excellent option in areas that are suitable for it. 20% of Denmark's power is provided via windpower. This is another technology that is coming into its own, with all of the changes and increased focus on greener lifestyles.

I don't understand what the person who kept mentioning oil as a renewable resource meant. It will surely be renewable once we've used up all of the raw source, but it took (and would take) millions of years to produce in the first place, so unlike trees, wind and solar power, it isn't really feasible to consider as a renewable resource.
