Solar energy is becoming more and more popular as a source of household energy in many countries around the world. Why is this? What are the advantages and disadvantages of solar energy?

In today’s contemporary era, alternate, renewable sources of

energy

are in demand. Among these, solar

energy

is

one

of the popular choices for powering houses throughout the globe. Sunlight powered

also

known as ‘Solar

its

own sets of pros and cons. I would like to discuss the same.

Firstly

, being a non-fossil fuel source of

energy

, it's quite environment-friendly.  To give evidence,

one

research data states that, since the acquisition of solar panels to run the homes of Netherland, the carbon

of Netherland has declined by an astonishing 45%! What’s more, is that the infrastructure hub and oil-mining super-giant, Dubai, is making its own plans of establishing solar panels in the outskirts of

city to power the entire, high electricity consuming, metropolitan soon, in the upcoming years.

Secondly

, since it’s a

-time investment, it’s friendly to the pockets in the long run.

just needs to install it and

then

forget about the money-sucking electricity bills. 

However

, it does have some downsides too. Availability is an issue in its own right. In the developing world, it's quite unusual to see solar-powered households due to the lack of infrastructure and financial monetary funds.

Moreover

, being sun dependent, it may not be suitable in some areas like Russia, Canada, and the Scandinavia, wherein, the

and snowy environment. So, it may not be a feasible option there.  There should be made international regulations, propagation agendas, and political norms of promoting the adoption of solar-powered homes. For

, governments should be encouraged to give financial aids, in the form of subsidies and loans for installing solar panels in the developing countries

such

as India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Brazil, etc...
