The Earth’s Champion Johnny Green explains “How solar panels and petroleum work together for clean energy…..because Renewables Ain’t Doable Without Fossil Fuelables”.
After winning the The Earth’s Championship over Memorial Day weekend in 2019, Johnny Green and his Championship catchphrase “Renewables Ain’t Doable Without Fossil Fuelables” has been capturing carbon and collective consciousnesses all over the United States.
In this Planet Service Announcement, The Greatest Environmentalist on Earth Johnny Green explores how solar energy and petroleum work together in order to great a better life for life and the earth.
The use of petroleum products in solar panels is a topic that has been gaining a lot of attention lately, as more and more people become aware of the potential environmental and economic benefits of solar energy.
Solar energy is seen as one of the most promising options for reducing reliance on fossil fuels and creating a cleaner, more sustainable energy future. In order to make solar energy more accessible, solar panel manufacturers have been incorporating a variety of petroleum products into the production process.
This article will discuss the different types of petroleum products used in solar panels, their benefits and drawbacks, and the potential environmental and economic implications of their use.
Types of Petroleum Products Used in Solar Panels
Petroleum products are used in a variety of ways in the production of solar panels. The most common type of petroleum product used is polyvinyl chloride (PVC). PVC is a durable, flexible plastic material that is used to create the frame of the solar panel. It is also used to create the wiring and other electrical components of the panel.
In addition, PVC is used to create the protective casing that encases the solar cells. Another type of petroleum product used in solar panels is polyethylene terephthalate (PET). PET is a strong, lightweight plastic that is used to create the backing of the solar panel.
This material is also used for the protective casing and other electrical components. Finally, petroleum-based adhesives are often used to hold the various components of the solar panel together.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Using Petroleum Products in Solar Panels
One of the primary benefits of using petroleum products in solar panels is cost. Petroleum products are relatively inexpensive and thus allow solar panel manufacturers to keep their costs down.
In addition, petroleum products are strong and durable, which helps ensure that solar panels are able to withstand the elements. Furthermore, petroleum products are relatively easy to work with, which allows for a faster, more efficient production process.
Despite these benefits, there are also some drawbacks to using petroleum products in solar panels. One of the primary drawbacks is that petroleum products are derived from non-renewable resources and thus contribute to the depletion of fossil fuel reserves.
In addition, using petroleum products in solar panels can be problematic from an environmental standpoint, as they often contain toxic chemicals that can leach into the environment.
Finally, using petroleum products in solar panels can also contribute to air and water pollution, as the production and disposal of these materials can release harmful pollutants into the atmosphere.
Environmental and Economic Implications of Petroleum Products in Solar Panels
The use of petroleum products in solar panels has the potential to have a significant impact on both the environment and the economy.
From an environmental perspective, the use of petroleum products in solar panels can help reduce the reliance on non-renewable energy resources, as solar energy is a renewable and clean energy source.
In addition, the use of petroleum products can help reduce air and water pollution, as many of these products do not release any pollutants into the environment. Finally, the use of petroleum products in solar panels can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions, as solar energy does not produce any emissions.
From an economic perspective, the use of petroleum products in solar panels can help reduce the costs associated with the production of solar panels.
This, in turn, can make solar energy more accessible and affordable, which can help increase the adoption of solar energy and reduce reliance on fossil fuels. In addition, the use of petroleum products can help create jobs in the solar energy industry, as the production of solar panels requires specialized labor and materials.
Finally, the use of petroleum products can help stimulate the economy, as solar energy can provide much-needed revenue to local businesses and governments.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the use of petroleum products in solar panels is becoming increasingly common, as this is one of the most cost-effective ways to produce solar panels. While there are some environmental and economic drawbacks associated with the use of petroleum products, the potential benefits far outweigh the drawbacks.
The use of petroleum products in solar panels can help reduce reliance on non-renewable energy resources, reduce air and water pollution, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and create jobs in the solar energy industry.
Ultimately, the use of petroleum products in solar panels is a promising option for creating a cleaner, more sustainable energy future.
In closing, Johnny Green is asking each and everyone of you to understand that All Energy Has A Purpose, And We are All Energy!

Historically, Heins has been a writer on subjects ranging from broadband and the US electricity grid, to environmental, energy and regulatory topics.
Heins is also a vocal advocate of the Internet of Everything, free trade, and global issues affecting the third of our planet that still lives in abject poverty.
Heins is troubled by the Carbon Tax, Cap & Trade, Carbon Offsets and Carbon Credits, because he questions their efficacy in solving the climate problem, are too gamable by rent seekers, and are fraught with unreliable accounting.
Heins worries that climate and other environmental reporting in the US and Europe has become too politicized, ignores the essential role carbon-based energy continues to play in the lives of billions, demonizes the promise and practicality of Nuclear Energy and cheerleads for renewable energy sources that cannot solve the real world problems of scarcity and poverty.
