production from a combination of hydroelectric‚ wind and solar power. It takes three thousand megawatts to power the metropolitan area and our current usage of electricity is being powered by the use of oil and natural gas. However‚ there has been a push in the state of Texas to explore and begin the use of renewable resources. Many areas in the state have begun “wind farms” where areas of high winds are suitable for wind turbines to harvest the wind power and produce energy for the area. Because of

The other reason why it is not possible for it to replace fossil feuls is that renewable energy is not reliable. It relays heavily on the wheather condition‚ rain‚ sunshine‚ wind etc. These wheather condition is something that people cannot control‚ without sunshine‚ solar pannels cannot generate energy. Without wind‚ wind mills is not able to generate energy. When there is a drought‚ hydro electric plants are not capable of generating energy‚ and the same appilies to all of the renewable energy
