a less reliable production of heat
higher costs for the monthly heating bill
an increase in waste production
smaller quantities of heat

Respuesta :

“a less reliable production of heat” is your answer. somebody actually answered this question before on this app, and got it correct. hope this helps :)

Solar power plants uses thermal energy from the sun. This thermal energy is further converted into electrical energy using photovoltaic cells.

What is thermal energy?

Thermal energy (also called heat energy) is "produced when a rise in temperature causes atoms and molecules to move faster and collide with each other".

What is photovoltaic cell?

A photovoltaic cell "is an electronic component that generates electricity when exposed to photons, or particles of light".

Hence, family will switch towards the less reliable production of heat. The solar energy is obtained from the radiation of the Sun.
