Renewable Energy
In The USA

Introduction
The use of non-renewable energy for so long has caused the global
warming.
Further use of non-renewable would worsen the condition of climate.
New Mexico is the state in the US that produces lowest energy from
alternative sources.
The state could use three types of alternative energy namely solar, wind
and hydroelectric energy source.

Solar Energy
The first alternative energy source that New Mexico can use to replace non-
renewable source of energy is solar energy (Choi, Lee & Song, 2017).
Most of the electricity consumed in the state is produced from fossil fuel and
it emits carbon which is harmful for the climate (Lee, Kang, & Liou, 2017).
Use of production of electricity from solar power does not emits carbon.
The production of electricity from coal would reduce and thereby the
demand for fossil fuel reduces and thus carbon emission would decline.
Use of electricity produced from solar power in New Mexico is significant and
thus the alternative source would be effective for the state.

Negative Impact of Solar
Energy
Use of solar energy requires manufacturing of photo voltaic cell.
Materials used to manufacture photo voltaic cells are hazardous to the
environment.
The use of land and use of water to produce electricity from solar energy
leads to the loss of habitat.
 The use of solar plates to produce electricity to provide the entire state
requires installation of photo voltaic cell.
The people would lose job that works in fossil fuel generated electricity.
