Abstract

As climate change remains a problem in the United States, renewable energy provides an optimal solution to replace fossil fuels using the energy available from the sun, wind, and water. Unfortunately, developing renewable energy hinders many people due to the amount of time, cost, and maintenance to provide plenty of energy to multiple communities, industries, and businesses. We are using case studies, scholarly articles and textbooks that focuses on solar energy as our main focus of the topic. Specifically, we analyze ways for the United States to use solar energy using solar panel or photovoltaics in their homes and industries to educate people to take advantage of solar panels to be installed in their homes. We will demonstrate solutions using engineering to help save land, cost, and time to show the society in using solar first and later other renewable energy techniques. Our goal is to demonstrate the importance in developing photovoltaics as well as planning to develop existing solutions into new and improve for upcoming research and development.
