HISTORY OF SOLAR ENERGY Jake Tutorow Indiana Institute of Technology Fort Wayne‚ IN Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to explain the history of solar energy as well as the difficulties faced in acquiring government support and investments for infrastructure and technological gains. The history of solar energy is broken into five distinct categories: Earth energy‚ the ancient solar age‚ the modern solar age‚ solar in the 1950s‚ solar today‚ and agriculture. Earth energy focuses on the understanding

Solar Energy Topics Solar technologies use the sun’s energy and light to provide heat‚ light‚ hot water‚ electricity‚ and even cooling‚ for homes‚ businesses‚ and industry. More basic information about solar is also available. Solar Technologies Photovoltaics (PV) Photovoltaic solar cells‚ which directly convert sunlight into electricity‚ are made of semiconducting materials. The simplest cells power watches and calculators and the like‚ while more complex systems can light houses and

Harnessing of Solar Energy: Photosynthesis versus Semiconductor Based Solar Cell Photosynthesis and semiconductor-based solar cells are both used to harness solar energy from the sun – photosynthesis for plants and semiconductor based solar cells for human beings. Photosynthesis consists of light reactions and dark reactions. It is a process in which carbon dioxide (CO2)‚ water (H2O) and light energy are utilized to synthesize an energy-rich carbohydrate like glucose (C6H12O6) and to produce

Space-based solar power (SBSP) is the concept of collecting solar power in space for use on Earth. It has been in research since the early 1970s. SSPS consists of a space-based power generation/transmission facility that gathers sunlight‚ converts it into microwaves or laser beams‚ and transmits those to the ground; and a power receiving facility on the ground. Space-based solar power essentially consists of three elements: • a means of collecting solar power in space‚ for example via solar cells or

ASTOUNDING SOLAR ENERGY FACTS What is solar energy? People often think of solar energy as solar panels mounted on roofs in sunny neighborhoods. This is only part of solar energy (“Solar energy facts‚”2012). Solar energy is the oldest energy source. Plants‚ animal and the microbial life have been using it as a principle energy source since the times of creation. It is in the form of heat and light. In the past years‚ people have tapped solar energy enabling it to be used at all times; including
