Diesel Generators vs. Solar Energy

Diesel Generators are used by many homes and industries today.   While most users are aware of the high cost of diesel energy, the other downside of diesel is its harmful emissions.
Diesel exhaust contains more than 40 toxic air contaminants, including many known or suspected cancer-causing substances, such as benzene, arsenic, and formaldehyde. It also contains other harmful environmental pollutants, including nitrogen oxide, currently the single most important ozone-depleting emission.

(1). In relation to human health, it is estimated that up to 70% of cancer risk attributable to inhalation of toxic air pollutants in the United States arise from diesel exhaust

(2). Exposure to diesel exhaust has been linked to lung cancer in occupational settings

The financial benefits are in addition to the environmental benefits.   Diesel generated electricity can add up to significantly high per unit cost of production.   The logistics of purchasing diesel, the pilferages and losses during transportation, are additional burdents.

With this background, it is natural that users of diesel generators, are making the switch to solar energy.
