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

Renewable Energy SCIE90014 Assignment 1: Pros and Cons of Solar PV and Solar CSP compare small-scale roof top PV with large-scale PV and CSP. There are different types of solar energy‚ but we tend to compare the two most popular types‚ Solar CSP and PV since they are commercialised. The main difference between the two is that photovoltaic systems directly convert the solar energy to electricity‚ while concentrated CSP first convert the solar energy into thermal energy and then into electrical energy

bulb" now exists that does not use any conventional energy. Introducing the Solar Bottle Bulb -- an alternative source of daylight powered by the sun. It is made from an old soda bottle. By filling it with water and sealing it into the roof‚ the water refracts the sun’s rays and provides about 55 watts of light to a darkened room. This was invented in 2006 by students at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). It can be built and installed in less than 1 hour‚ and uses inexpensive

| | Environmental Benefits of Solar Solar Panels Produce Electricity with Zero EmissionsSolar energy generated via solar panels (also known as Photovoltaic Solar or PV solar) is one of the most sustainable ways we have of generating energy and electricity today. First and foremost solar panels produce electricity without emissions of any kind. The majority of electricity we use in the United States today is generated from burning coal. Recently there has been a lot excitement around the idea
