 As for other renewable resources, solar and photovoltaic panels can be used for electricity production only during period of sufficient sun light, which is mainly from October to March. Those energy resources can be used as a side resource for households or small network of consumer not for big entrepreneurs or even whole country. As we could hear during our excursion in solar factory, the energy also cannot be used for the whole year without a storage system. The chargers are very expensive and has a quite short lasting service life so it can be another disadvantage of solar or PV system. What surprised us is that 100 % of parts of certain types of panels are recyclable. Average lifespan of panels is 25 years, but they could work longer with reduced efficiency. Development is moving forward rapidly and solar energy is becoming more profitable and cheaper.
-Conclusion
+In conclusion, it is not a solution to install solar panels or wind mills everywhere just to have energy, especially in time of current technologies. Even in Austria, solar power is only supplemental source of energy and only in local scale. It is impossible to meet the growing energy demand only with solar and wind power as they are not stable and available all the time. It is important to concern specific climatic and other conditions, to combine the most suitable types of energy resources, and what is most important to save energy! As was mentioned above it means that, Austrian energy supply will be more or less taken from renewable resources. Whereas energy supply in The Czech Republic will be based on nuclear energy.
