1. Why is it difficult to implement renewable energy and how to implement it?
In a sunny location, sunlight has a power density of about 1 kW/m2 . Photovoltaic solar cells can convert this power into electricity with 16% efficiency. If a typical home uses 390 kW⋅h of electricity per month, how many square meters of solar cells would be required to meet its energy requirements? Assume that electricity can be generated from the sunlight for 8 h/day .
Why are renewable resources a better source of energy?
