Rephrasing
1) Original
Actually, I don’t know much about the solar panel energy industry but I am using solar panels. I have solar panels on my house and it is very helpful to save money. It only cost around $300 per year we pay for using electricity (including heating my house) because actually I am using the system of selling electricity so we can sell the surplus energy and sometimes just we can get around $30 or $40 a month, especially in summer time. Yeah, I think it’s really useful.
1) Correction
I am quite unfamiliar with solar panels even though I have them on my house. I have found that solar panels are great for my family economically because they only cost us $200 per year. Plus, we are able to sell any excess energy because it goes into the grid, which can even allow us to make $30 to $40 some months. In the summer, this is especially useful.
2) Original
But these days I heard that the price of solar panels is really cheaper than several years ago because China solar panel makers they produce huge amount of solar panels with quite cheap price so these days many people are trying to use solar panels compared to 6 years ago. We moved to this house 9 years ago and at the time many people were unfamiliar to using solar panels and how such money we could save when we use the solar panels and then I explained our solar panels and they were a little surprised. I think these days more people are using solar panels.
2) Correction
Recently, solar panels have become even cheaper than they were in the past due to decreased production costs, so more people are beginning to use solar panels. We moved into our current house 9 years ago, at which time people did not know much about solar panels and were surprised when I explained to them how beneficial they can be. I’ve noticed that more people are using solar panels in recent years.
Article Summery
3) Original
The article was a little big long for me to understand it but I remember that the solar panel energy becomes very important these days the issue global warming so solar panels become very important to solve the global warming issues. But solar panels include some toxic materials so solar panels can contaminate our lands also so the new issues has come out so we have to figure out how to recycle solar panels effectively but American systems they don’t have any mandatory to recycle solar panels and some European companies they try to recycle solar panels. So the article commented that we don’t have enough methods or solutions to recycle solar panels.
3) Correction
Though the article was a bit dense, the main takeaways were that solar panels have become increasingly important as the issue of global warming became exacerbated. However, it has been discovered that improperly disposing of solar panels contributes to the leakage of toxic materials causing contamination. Therefore, it’s pertinent (important) to figure out a more environmentally friendly way to recycle solar panels. For example, some European companies have come up with methods to recycle solar panels, however American companies still don’t have mandatory solar panel recycling programs. The main point of the article then was to point out the lack of effective solar panel recycling methods.
