My Energy Source Choice

If I had to choose an energy choice for personal use, I would get solar energy. The reason why I would choose solar power over other energy sources is because the advantages outweigh the disadvantages by a lot. Solar energy doesn't have many disadvantages, and the amount that it does have can easily be solved. Solar energy has many advantages though, such as it does no harm to the environment, it is free to use, and renewable. The disadvantages are that solar panels are expensive itself and to install, and the sun doesn't always shine. But those disadvantages can have less effect. The solar panels are expensive now, but if we build the awareness of solar power, more people will start using it and prices will eventually go down. As for the sun shining, we could always use an alternative energy source. I would use hydropower for the times solar power isn't available. Hydropower is also renewable and does little damage to the environment. Hydropower and solar power together would make a great and smart way to use energy.
