Alternative energy sources such as solar provide electricity generated from the sun’s energy rather than fossil fuels. There are two types of solar energy: concentrated solar power and photovoltaic power. Concentrated solar power (CSP) works similarly to how we currently use fossil fuels to…

The sunset gives the clouds various color definitions allowing for the oranges…
