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

Energy[edit] Aralvaimozhy railway station in Kanyakumari District with a view of wind farm Starting from the second quarter of 2010‚ the total energy demand in Tamil Nadu state is increasing exponentially[citation needed] and the state government is helpless to cut off power supply to an vast extent to the consumers. The complete state (except Chennai city‚ the capital) suffers a power cut for more than 11 hours a day. The city of Chennai only has 2 hours of power cuts a day.[citation needed]

INTRODUCTION: ENERGY FROM THE SUN The sun has produced energy for billions of years. Solar energy is the sun’s rays (solar radiation) that reach the earth. Solar energy can be converted into other forms of energy‚ such as heat and electricity. In the 1830s‚ the British astronomer John Herschel 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 converted
