A Review of Measures to Encourage the Use of Solar Power for Heating Hot Water and Generating Electricity in Australia

Article Preview

Abstract:

Currently the development of city construction and urbanization is still primarily of dependence on nonrenewable resources, traditionally, fossil-fuel. The detrimental effects consequently emerging on environment call for purifying the process of urban growth. As a typical form of renewable energy, solar power has been incorporated into the development plans in terms of its sustainability, economic advantages and pollution-free. This article contains a detailed assessment of feasibility of solar power at economic level and develops strategies for its implementation in Australia.
