Abstract This paper deals with Solar Maximum Year observations that can shed light on the roles of energetic electron beams and thermal conduction in solar flares. The emphasis is on X-ray and UV images and on the interpretation of chromospheric spectra. The format is that of a one-sided debate advocating the view that most of the flare energy that reaches the chromosphere is transferred by thermal conduction rather than by energetic electron beams. Reference is made to papers offering opposing points of view on this still controversial question.
