Part A
How does the author of “Solar-Powered Public Buildings? Not So Fast, California!” support the claim that increasing solar energy will interrupt the delivery of electricity to Californians?
by arguing that energy prices in the state are more expensive than anywhere else in the country
by explaining that California produces so much extra electricity that it must pay to give it away
by exposing the hidden costs in updating the state’s public buildings to be ready to use solar electricity
by describing the power outages that happen when too much solar energy is produced
Question 2
Part B
Which evidence from the text best supports the answer to Part A?
“Of course not. The New York Times notes that, already, California’s ‘per-unit [energy] prices are among the highest in the nation.’ The use of renewable energy sources like solar and wind power are part of the reason why.”
“It does not factor in the expenses that come with updating them to handle new technology. In some cases, roofs will need to be replaced so they can support solar panels. In others, trees will have to be cut down so they don’t keep the sunlight from reaching the panels.”
“That’s right. California—and Californians—give other states money to take the solar electricity that California—and Californians—paid to create. Getting rid of excess power costs the state more cash!”
“Excess solar electricity can overload power lines. Overloaded power lines lead to power blackouts. Blackouts are inconvenient for people and harmful to businesses. They must be avoided.”
