Renewable Energy
On Saturday I attended a lecture on renewable energy (RE). I learned many facts. The most promising sources of renewable energy are wind and sun. In recent years the solar panels have become much cheaper and more profitable. Though there are many problems associated with using RE: low effiency, high construction cost and impermanence. The solar panels don't work at night and wind turbines don't work during the calm.The many countries in Europe use renewable energy. In Russia solar panels are used in hard to reach settlements, when it's difficult to build power lines from the stations. There are many nuclear power plants in Russia, this is due to the large area of the country. However, modern nuclear power plants are much safer than before.
In my opinion, in the future all of humanity will use "green energy".
Although and however. The rules you have been told about are not hard and fast rules.
The various dictionaries and sources I referred to. To check my memory, say we "usually" follow the rules in the links below.
Usually does not mean it is a necessity.

If you read the red link and the blue link you will see the way you have used although is correct. Because both parts of your two sentence clauses remain "TRUE". And you have a comma after although. It does not have to come after the word although.
I guess this is going to be another case where teachers do not agree ! :)

Renewable Energy.
There are many problems associated with using RE: low effiency, high construction cost and impermanence. However, The solar panels don't work at night and wind turbines don't work during the calm. (but they don't work at night or during the calm)
There are many problems associated with using RE: low efficiency, high construction cost and impermanence . Although RE systems don't work at night, or during the calm. They are greener and useful in isolated places (they are useful in isolated places and greener).
Simple way to say same thing.
