Greenlite CBC Video Case Incident Selling solar energy to the USA, China, and India: The challenges that will be faced are the fact that many countries are already producing their own solar energy and storing it as well using it within the grid system that is already established. It’s called harnessing the energy. The main grid systems are aware of the energy that can be produced and in large countries are encouraging solar power for homes and businesses, solar energy is definitely the way of the future. In Burnaby for example if a home owner installs solar panels on their home and does not use all the power produced, the left over energy will go to BC Hydro the home owner will then receive a cheque for the extra energy Hydro is still hooked up to your home and monitors your consumption. Greenlite Selling their energy to China and the US would be a hard …show more content…
India is catching up with development in many large areas of the country with structures, homes, agriculture and business. The conventional energy generation is with coal and with the ground not producing enough for India to power the country power plants are forced to purchase pricier imported coal. This is a great opportunity to sell their product moving India well into a solar energy country using raw resources. Greenlite could work with the existing power plants to help India move them into cleaner energy the factory would offer jobs to the community, the cost of employees would be low considering the cost of living is low. This would bring the factory into making profit much quicker. Looking further into the future Greenlite could build more factories in India producing more job opportunity for the people and more energy to sell globally and supply for

It will be interesting to see if solar panel saunas are a thing of the future or if they will be developed to efficiently in our homes of the present. If power can be collected by the energy of the sun and then used to heat our home sauna then it will be a great energy saver.
Claim: Solar power has the potential to become the United States main supply of energy and replace are needs for more conventional and harmful forms of power generation.
The future of the United States solar energy industry will be shaped not only by economic growth, but also by the rate of declining oil resources and the global realization of the consequences of human induced climate change. Political responses to this realization in the United States include; new policies, legislature, and tax incentives to both businesses and private households to promote growth and investment in the solar power industry.
Two people who believe this are reporters at the Breit Bart News Network. Julian Morris and Victor Nava believe that, “‘Green’ energy subsidies benefit the politically connected while harming future generations as hundreds of millions of dollars are added to the country’s debt burden with each green failure.” In a way Morris and Nava are correct. According to Mathias Aarre Maehlum, “Residential solar systems are typically sized from 3 to 8kW and end up costing between $15,000 and $40,000.” This can add up to become very expensive when implementing solar energy throughout the country. However, with the advancements in technology growing every year the cost will decrease over time. The cost of implementation can in fact go down as well through the use of community solar gardens. This helps the homes that are shaded and cannot absorbs the Sun’s energy. The energy from the community solar gardens are shared through out those homes. Switching to solar energy can also save money over time. Rhone Resch, president of the Solar Energy Industries Association confirms this. Resch says, “Today, the solar industry employs nearly 175,000 Americans and pumps more than $15 billion a year into the U.S. economy – and we’re just scratching the surface of our enormous potential” (qtd. in
The fact that we can all agree on whether you have a different taste of music, taller or shorter than others, maybe skinnier or chubbier, a completely different ethnicity than someone next to you, or any other personal trait that correlates with you being a living person, everyone as long as they are alive in this world eats food. Whether you eat 3 times a day, a body builed with prepared meals for 10 times a day, or maybe you just wait off until dinner time before you indulge yourself, it doesn’t matter what you like to eat, everyone needs food to function. Just try to make yourself get through 1 day without eating and see how it affects yourself. Now that we’ve all agreed that food is necessary for the existence of our lives to carry on, do you know what you are actually eating most of the time? I mean of course you have a piece of pizza in front of you, or some hot cheetos and mountain dew you just grabbed from the store, but do you ever pay attention to the statistical ingredients within the food you eat or wonder how it got where it is before it landed right into your hands as an
Important considerations include additional CO2 emissions and the financial burden from having to use fossil fuels to make up for lost output, effect on the payback period of the project, decreased future investment and incentives. The additional burden of CO2 is the easiest metric to consider due to a large amount of data available regarding CO2 emissions. Given the current and projected 2015 solar energy capacity, these decreases in output will have only a slight effect on added CO2 emissions and the burden to deal with them. Assuming that lost solar output will be replaced by natural gas or coal generated electricity, Table 2 summarizes the resulting CO2 burden due to 3% output loss in PV and 20% output loss in CSP. Compared to 1722 and 1391 million metric tons of CO2 emitted due to coal and natural gas in 2013, respectively, the amount of additional CO2 burden as a result of decreased solar output does not seem significant. It is important to note, though, that this represents only the additional emissions in the US in one year. If solar power continues to grow internationally, the effect of additional CO2 and its costs can be enormous. A report on CSP market in Chile indicates the possibility of as much as 1 GW CSP capacity over the next three years , with a projected 13,000 GWh production by the year 2024. Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Spain and others have expressed strong interest in CSP, and are moving forward with plans for 25 GW, 1 GW, and 2 GW CSP capacity in the next decade . With billions of invested dollars at stake and increasing global GW capacity, a 20% output loss and the additional CO2 emitted will no longer be trivial. In fact, proceeding with SSAI could impact future interest and investment in solar energy, particularly CSP
There is a very solid reason for selecting green technology as compared to the other technologies available because there is a very limited amount of natural resources like coal, petroleum available to man kind and these are getting depleted at an alarming rate. Moreover, green technology is turning out to be a good business these days as the market for greener products is increasing day by day. Consumers know that green products reduce their energy bills and these are always safer and healthier products to use, explains [1].
... Sunlight and heat will always be available to us because, it is a non-extinguishing resource and so, let us make use of it. With all these points made, there is no question that, solar energy is capable of becoming the world's future power supply. Works Cited Venables, M.

Regarding to solar power, Mistry claims that although the solar power does not generate pollution, it has a lot of costs. To built solar panels with a photovoltaic equipment has high costs. For instance, a photovoltaic system just for a home can cost around $35,000 (Kumar, 2012). However, if our goal for the future is to get a healthy environment, switch fossil fuels for solar power might be the best choice to achieve that goal. According to Kumar (2012), Solar power is a clean and renewable energy so, it decreases the dependency on fossil fuel and also reduces the air pollution. When the sun heats the panel, it generates clean energy which does not pollute the environment. All in all, the costs of solar power might not be applicable when it is certainly the best way for having a clean
The first disadvantage is that there is more energy being used than there are sites to make energy from renewable resources. More sites may have to be built which would increase the initial cost, or, using less energy. More energy is produced with smaller portions of non-renewable resources. There is an argument that the weather could cause us to not have enough energy if there is not the right weather condition. Hydroelectric energy needs rain, wind power needs wind, and solar power needs sun. Without the control over the conditions outside, there would have to comprise energy. Other disadvantage arguments states that wind energy it causing changes to the wind pattern. The final disadvantage is the cost. This may seem contradictory to the advantages of cost, but the startup cost of these operations is more expensive. Solar power in houses cost more money initially for the consumer for the solar
