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

Garcia PTAC-1308 Energy Conservation It would be hard to imagine a life without the use of energy. So many of the products that we use on a daily basis are powered because of electricity‚ which in turn is generated because of energy. American’s use a mixture of different energy sources to cool and heat our homes‚ offices‚ and means of transportation. We also use energy sources to illuminate and power these same places. Oil has provided the United States with less than 50% of energy needs and supplies
