Li‚ 1 2-16-13 Solar Energy: The Energy of the Future Our Earth’s resorvoir of resources seem to be limitless‚ but with the exponential growth of the human population; the need for efficient alternative energy sources is becoming urgent. Therefore‚ research companies and individuals are focusing on creating new energy systems. Fossil fuels are are depleting and becoming more difficult to obtain. The earth will face an energy crisis in the near future if humans are not careful with their consumption

Advantages Solar cells provide cost effective solutions to energy problems in places where there is no mains electricity. Solar cells are also totally silent and non-polluting. As they have no moving parts they require little maintenance and have a long lifetime. Compared to other renewable sources they also possess many advantages; wind and water power rely on turbines which are noisy‚ expensive and liable to breaking down. Rooftop power is a good way of supplying energy to a growing community

for PV solar is growing and very promising‚ especially Europe and East Asia. * The global concern over clean and renewable energy. * The rising prices of oil. * International incentives‚ funding from governments to encourage alternate energy sources will create larger demands‚ namely in Europe‚ China and Canada. | * Competitors with similar technologies‚ competitive prices‚ brand name recognition and market share are viable threats. Most companies compete globally with Canadian Solar. *

first modern solar cell In 1954‚ the first modern silicon cells raised by Bell Labs‚ then it shown at the National Academic of Science meeting. Moreover‚ this kind of cell can make 6 percent efficiency. Then‚ the New York Time come up with that the cell would lead to a source of “Limitless energy of the sun”. In 1955‚ the Western Electric created very significant solar cell technologies. The technology start to use in makes solar cells. In 1957‚ the AT&T telecom company used the “solar battery”

Advantages of Solar Energy in India Solar energy provides cost effective solutions to energy problems where there is no electricity at all. Some of the advantages of solar energy which makes it all the more suitable for India are as follows: No Pollution : Solar energy is environment friendly. Solar energy is non-polluting‚ clean‚ reliable and renewable source of electricity. It does not pollute the air by releasing harmful gases like carbon dioxide‚ nitrogen oxide and sulphur oxide. Solar energy does

To begin‚ I could have listed facts and certainties regarding the solar eclipse in order to persuade and negotiate my audience‚ as opposed to using pathos as my primary rhetorical application. Specifically‚ I could have cited the rarity and infrequency of a solar eclipse by providing dates‚ such as‚ when the last solar eclipse took place and when the next solar eclipse is expected. Next‚ I might have applied a combination of ethos and logos as a method of persuasion by citing a reputable and credible

With an increasing awareness in the fight against global warming and greenhouse gas emissions‚ governments around the world are looking for alternative sources of energy. These include wind‚ solar and hydro energy sources‚ known as renewable sources (Able to be regrown). However‚ one fuel source in particular is currently being used and produced to power both vehicles and electrical generators around the world; biofuels. Biofuels are renewable gas or liquid fuels made from plant matter such as corn

Government Subsidies for Solar Panels Substitutes can help reduce the price of economic costs of some necessary utilities. Solar energy is a substitute and also an opportunity cost for the energy we use now‚ called fossil fuels. There are many benefits to switching from fossil fuels to solar energy. Solar energy can help lower the cost of the energy we use now by burning fossil fuels‚ changing the supply and demand of the product. Also‚ it can help the pollution that is causing further health
