Solar Power For millions of years the sun has wrapped the world in it ’s warmth and light‚ providing the necessities for life. Even now we are still finding many uses for the massive amount of energy the sun produces. Light travels to the earth in about eight seconds and is filled with little packets of energy called photons‚ which make utalizing this solar power possible. There are three main ways to collect solar power. The first two are called passive system and active system. These use the

Weaponry‚ its essence From a civilian’s viewpoint‚ such an extensive amount of energy should be allotted to an important aspect of the society and the government. There are several reasons why solar energy should be invested on the military. 1- In the present geopolitical situation‚ the military is the biggest asset a country can have. Taking a look at worldwide politics‚ a country’s strength is contingent upon how able it is to combat other countries to prevent them from bullying

While solar energy startup and even maintenance costs can be just as expensive as oil and coal production‚ solar energy is undoubtedly worth the price in the long run‚ even solely for the benefit of CO2 reduction.

Optimization of Transformers in Solar Energy As renewable sources of energy are becoming more appealing for economical and environmental reasons‚ it is important to explore ways to optimize our production of these alternative forms of energy. Solar energy is one of the cleanest options for renewable energy but is less preferable due to the short term cost effectiveness of constructing mass solar plants. It is important to try and improve upon the existing technology of solar power production as a means

Most scientists think that our solar system was made from a nearby star‚ called the supernova. These scientists believe that the explosion of the supernova squeezed a nearby cloud of dust‚ causing it to collapse. When the gravity gathered the dust together‚ it formed something called a solar nebula. Soon‚ the cloud became hotter‚ a disk of gas surrounding it. Molecules gathered in a clump as the disk got smaller. Scientists believe in this theory using technology. They used this technology to observe

Can Solar Energy be a viable alternative for electricity generation in Nepal? “The sun bathes the earth in a steady‚ enormous flow of radiant energy that far exceeds what the world requires for electricity fuel.” The last decade has been harsh enough for the people of Nepal. The power cut being hiked up to 16 hours a day in 2009 provides testimony to the fact that Nepal has been hard hit by energy crisis. Given the over-increasing population‚ along with rapid industrialization and urbanization

a) Photovoltaic solar power systems are environmentally beneficial because they release no harmful pollutants or emissions such as CO2. These systems operate throughout the day‚ implying it is sunny‚ and do not rely greatly on other power sources to operate‚ thus there is less of a toll on the environment in terms of external resource usage. An environmental cost of photovoltaic systems is the manufacturing of these systems that uses energy and could possibly contribute to more atmospheric pollution
