What are the advantages of solar energy compared with traditional energy?

As a new energy, solar energy has three characteristics compared with conventional energy: first, it is the most abundant energy that human beings can use. It is estimated that in the past 1 1 billion years, the sun consumed 2% of its own energy. In the future, it will be enough to supply the earth and human beings for billions of years. It is really inexhaustible. Second, there is solar energy everywhere on the earth, which can be developed and utilized locally, and there is no transportation problem, especially in rural areas, islands and remote areas with underdeveloped transportation. Third: Solar energy is a kind of clean energy. In the process of development and utilization, it will not produce waste residue, waste water, waste gas and noise, and will not affect the ecological balance. It will never cause pollution and public hazards.
