Solar Energy as the World’s Safest Future Clean Energy Source

Inhaltsangabe oder Einleitung

Energy supply and demand determine global development course in every sphere of human activity. Adequate supplies of clean energy have undeniably observable correlation with global stability, increased life quality and economic prosperity. The search of energy sources that can meet the fast rising energy demand in the planet remains to be one of the foremost challenges facing the society for the next five decades. Over the years, large-scale power plants have been noted to develop at an alarming rate, using large tracts of land across the globe. The ecological issues that are allied to the installation of such plants and the operation phases of the facilities are yet to be adequately addressed. In the operation phases, there are evident impacts that can be categorized in diverse groups, namely, land use intensity, plant and animal life, human health and well-being, climate change and Geo-hydrological resources. The significance of this invasive challenge, along with the baffling difficulty of solving it will require rigorous national and international efforts that marshal the most advanced technological and scientific potentials. One of these efforts can be considered as the application of substitutes to the use of non-renewable as well as polluting fossil fuels, solar energy being one of these main alternatives in this case, as will be explored in this paper. Solar energy is one of the renewable energy resources that have become an increasingly valuable method of diversifying energy options in the world because it does not generate pollution. Driven by increasing technological advancements, rising energy prices along with falling costs, projects of solar energy are increasingly being developed in numerous nations across the globe. Therefore, solar energy remains to be a compelling solution to human demand for clean and abundant energy source in the future, though it may contain some challenges too.
