Solar Energy Introduction With the unlimited energy we receive from the sun‚ solar energy has the capabilities to meet the endless demand of energy and electricity both here in the United States and worldwide. Solar Energy is the one of a few energy sources that emits no carbon dioxide into the atmosphere at all. When comparing the cost and benefits of solar energy to other energy sources it is clear that solar energy is the most viable form of energy possible. With renewable energy becoming

consumption of energy sources that are used to get us through our everyday lives! Our most common methods of generating energy are polluting our beloved planet Earth and tearing up the ozone layer. Also‚ many of these methods we are currently abusing to generate energy are non-renewable. Thats means we could run out any day now. This is a formula for complete disaster‚ but don’t be scared. Like most things we can fix this situation we have put ourselves into with alternative energy sources. Sorry

kilowatt-hour for green energy somehow seems like too high of a cost for little gain. This is a continuing issue with the green energy movement: how do you get consumers to pay a premium for green energy? APS is facing this problem‚ and our solution is eGreen‚ a campaign to tie APS to green energy and motivate customers to ¡§go green.¡¨ Using green energy sources stops millions of tons of CO2 emissions from entering the atmosphere each year. Basing on existing APS Green Choice renewable energy plan‚ eGreen
