The assignment asked us to act as a committee for a city that is considering installing solar panels to provide power to City Hall and the library. We were to conduct research and prepare a report explaining how solar panels work, the advantages and disadvantages of using this form of power, and whether or not your committee recommends the installation of solar panels.
