Alternative Energy It’s Pros and Cons By xxxxxxxxxxxx

Pros of Wind Energy Endless and renewable Clean to make and use Electricity from it can be used to power electric cars and buildings Can be placed in crop fields

Cons of Wind Energy Only works while wind blows Costs more than fossil fuels Many models hurt bird populations Some consider ugly kids/energyfacts/sources /renewable/wind.html

Pros of Solar Energy Clean to use and produce Renewable source of power Can be placed on top of roofs to make self powered buildings Electricity generated can be used to power buildings and electric cars Can eventually save you money dule

Cons of Solar Energy Expensive to install Only works while sun is shining Clouds and pollution lower energy production

Pros of Hydrogen Burns clean Can be putt in cars in fuel cell or liquid forms Highest energy content of any fuel Can be made from water through electrolysis

Cons of Hydrogen Requires energy or fossil fuels to make Expensive to make, move and store Often made using fossil fuels which are limited in supply Dangerous due to its reactivity
