Solar power and its Importance Solar power is the technology of obtaining usable energy from the light of the Sun. Solar power has been used as a traditional technology for centuries and is coming into widespread use where other power supplies are absent‚ such as in remote locations and in space. Humanity has been able to give good use to solar power thanks to how technology has advanced overtime. Solar power plays an important role in everyday life because it’s currently used in a lot of applications

Project Title: Why is Solar Power Better than Traditional Power? Solar Power might be a popularly growing technology today but the idea of its inception dates back to more than 175 years. It was in 1839 when Alexandre Edmond Becquerel discovered that certain materials produced small amounts of electricity on exposure to sunlight. Later‚ in 1876 William Adams along with Becquerel’s student Richard Day‚ discovered that selenium contained potential properties of converting light into electricity. The

Maltese Solar Energy: The Power of the Sun Nowadays fossil fuels are becoming more scarce than ever. Therefore to produce energy‚ mankind is investing in new technologies that produce energy from renewable sources. Solar Energy is considered as one of the most frequently used renewable energy source in countries from all over the world‚ including our beloved island. Quite a few of Maltese families have installed solar panels in their homes. One of the main drawbacks in installing a solar panel

Solar Nebular Hypothesis The idea behind the Solar Nebular Hypothesis is that the solar system was condensed from an enormous cloud of hydrogen‚ helium‚ and a few other elements and rocks. Around five billion years this cloud of materials began to spin and contract together into a disk shape under their own gravitational forces. The particles started combined together‚ protoplanets‚ to eventually form planets. A great mass of the material eventually began to form together‚ protosun‚ and make

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

Alternate energy source: Solar Energy Solar energy is one of most popular energy sources around the world. this is because it us conveniently to obtainable‚ as well as space efficient. It doesn’t take up a lot space and give superb energy. The sun is one of the most reliable energy sources on this planet. This is because the sun has been predicted to stay “alive” for many million years to come. It’s radiation also does not fluctuate from day to day like other sources of energy. Solar energy is most commonly
