Efficient, Clean, Responsible Solar Power

• Globally, solar electric generation has the highest power density among renewable energies.
• Solar power is pollution free during use. Production end wastes and emissions are manageable using existing pollution controls. End-of-use recycling technologies are under development.
• Systems can operate with little maintenance or intervention after initial setup.
• Solar electric generation is economically competitive where grid connection or fuel transport is difficult, costly or impossible.
• When grid connected, solar electric generation can displace the highest cost electricity during times of peak demand and can reduce grid loading.
• Grid connected solar electricity can be used locally thus minimizing transmission/distribution losses.
• Once the initial capital cost of building a solar power system has been spent, operating costs are low when compared to existing power technologies.
