What are the pollutants to be concerned about?
Electricity is the leading industrial cause of air pollution in the United States. Traditional power sources like coal create serious air pollutants including carbon dioxide (CO2), sulfur dioxides (SO2), which cause acid rain, and nitrogen oxides (NOx), which cause smog. Renewable energy facilities do not generate any of these pollutants.
