    Solar Energy Solar energy in one form or another is the source of nearly all energy on the earth. Humans‚ like all other animals and plants‚ rely on the sun for warmth and food. However‚ people also harness the sun’s energy in many other different ways. For example‚ fossil fuels‚ plant matter from a past geological age‚ is used for transportation and electricity generation and is essentially just stored solar energy from millions of years ago. Similarly‚ biomass converts the sun’s energy into a

    * The sun has produced energy for billions of years.  Solar energy is the sun’s rays (solar radiation) that reach the Earth. This energy can be converted into other forms of energy‚ such as heat and electricity. * In the 1830s‚ the British astronomer John Herschel famously used a solar thermal collector box (a device that absorbs sunlight to collect heat) to cook food during an expedition to Africa. Today‚ people use the sun’s energy for lots of things. solar energy can be used to: * Heat

    Solar Energy The Sun is a star and without it there would be no life on earth. This is why the Sun is called the ultimate source of energy. The Sun’s energy is produced by a process called nuclear fusion. Every second‚ the Sun emits vast amounts of energy‚ much of which is light‚ and this solar radiation can be converted into electricity. Plants and trees are pretty good at collecting this energy. With the help of green chlorophyll‚ they use light energy to make food – they’re our solar powered
