1. It Creates More Jobs : The solar industry has thousands of workers involved in various sectors. From manufacturing to sales to installers, the solar industry boasts of a quarter-million workers in this country alone. Thanks to a growing customer base from both homeowners and business owners, as well as a growing need for an affordable alternative source of energy, the solar industry workforce will continue to thrive.
2. It Benefits Public Health : Generating grid-based energy requires burning coal and/or fossil fuels. In addition to being an inefficient way to generate power — about two-thirds of the energy is lost during transmission or as heat during generation — energy from the grid contributes to pollution due to its hazardous byproducts. In contrast, solar energy doesn’t cause pollution or use up water. This means the more people use solar energy for powering anything from a smartphone charger to a smart HVAC system, the less impact power generation will have on public health.
3. It Helps Ensure Energy Security : Solar energy is an infinitely renewable source of energy, which makes it a more secure power source than coal or fossil fuels. It helps keep fuel shortage at bay and helps maintain the stability of energy costs. Since solar power is generated locally, we won’t be as affected in the event a fuel shortage occurs overseas.
4. It Helps Reduce The Strain On The Electric Grid : Grid-based energy won’t be going away anytime soon. In the meantime, solar energy can carry some of the load and help make the grid function more efficiently. This means less likelihood of power outages even during high-demand seasons like in the middle of summer.
