you also add this line in your paragraph.
Solar energy is radiant light and heat from the sun harnessed using a range of ever-evolving technologies such as solar heating, solar photovoltaics, solar thermal electricity, solar architecture
It's poorly researched, with the widespread but shallow Shale oil reserve now accessible by horizontal drilling and fracking, the US will likely be a net exporter of oil in a few years. Solar and wind are not load following technologies so they can not exceed the base load of the grid and indeed the grid would become unstable at a certain point, Hawaii has already reached this point and are rejecting any new solar net metering applications until they can find an effective means of storing the energy inexpensively. There are some techniques such as weather modeling for the strategic placement of wind turbines and more efficient long distance transmission lines for energy trading but both solar and wind are inherently limited unless additional load following sources can be added which so far has meant natural gas power plants.
No, it is a poorly written and excessively hyperbolic statement. I would remove claims about it being vital, and the third sentence contains a falsehood, the US does not totally rely on the importation of oil and natural gas, so you should really remove it. You're also wrong, solar energy will exhaust itself, the sun is limited in its lifespan. This is on a scale outside of human concern, but it's no reason to say so.
Also we know how to use solar energy. It's not a matter of know-how. It's a matter of infrastructure.
I would scrap most of what you have and start over.
Oh yeah
No, solar energy is just as bad for the environment when you factor in what it takes to make it and the batteries needed to store the energy for use during the night.
Yes. Very well written
The development of solar technology is vital to the American way of life. First and foremost, solar energy will make the United States an energy-independent nation once again. When we have the ability to provide cheap energy from the sun, we will not have to rely totally on expensive oil and natural gas imported from other countries. If cheap sources of energy become available, American industries will not find it necessary to raise prices and to increase inflation. Our national security will not have to depend upon foreign oil shipments. Secondly, solar energy will preserve the American environment. Power plants will no longer foul the air with hydrocarbons, pollute the waterways with oil spills, or contaminate the earth with radioactive wastes. Furthermore, solar energy will not exhaust itself. The American government would not have to revise its energy policy. As long as the sun shines, the world will have solar energy. Let us endeavor to learn to use it.
