Solar emergency Light Solar charger by Solarworld (Germany) Solar road lights and lawn lights 3 A GLOBAL VIEW The clean energy industry will shape the future of the world. When these disasters caused power outages‚ what we learned from natural disasters is that only the nature can power on our life. Solar energy is one of nature powers.

SOLAR ENERGY Our environment is in a fatal state any move could cost us the world. We need to work with the environment and not against it‚ we need to use what it is giving us every day and not every million year‚ once it is gone it is gone. Instead of using fossil fuels and having them burn to waste use solar energy and use what the sun gives us every day. Solar energy is an effective alternative source because there is very little pollution‚ they cut down on fossil fuels and are cost effective

Title ! (DIY) In order to heat almost 10000 gallons of water using solar energy‚ we have designed and implemented a solar hea9ng device. The design concept is to use a black pipe to absorb heat from the sun light in order to heat the water flowing in the pipes. This solar hea9ng

PASSIVE SOLAR INTRODUCTION Passive solar is a “GREEN BUILDING “technique‚ which depends on natural convection process rather than mechanical transmitting source‚ which captures the heat energy of sun and delivers it during winter and pumps out the heat in summer‚ using heat distribution methods. Some of the heat distribution methods are Convection‚ Conduction‚ and Radiation. However components of passive solar heating are‚ the aperture area of the house‚ absorber area of the house‚ thermal mass of

Solar System Our solar neighborhood is an exciting place. The Solar System is full of planets‚ moons‚ asteroids‚ comets‚ minor planets‚ and many other exciting objects. Learn about Io‚ the explosive moon that orbits the planet Jupiter‚ or explore the gigantic canyons and deserts on Mars. How Did The Solar System form? This is an important question‚ and one that is difficult for scientists to understand. After all‚ the creation of our Solar System took place billions of years before there

SOLAR POWER IN TODAYS WORLD JEROME T. GARDNER COLUMBIA SOUTHERN UNIVERSITY ABSTRACT Since first discovered in the 1860s‚ the concept of storing energy from the sun to use as a source of power has been studied and pursued by many programs. Either using solar collectors or photovoltaic cells‚ the methods of using solar power are becoming more efficient and cost-effective. Solar technology is currently being used by homes and businesses‚ but is still too expensive and risky for many residents. Researchers

heaters to melt snow‚ generate electricity‚ and overall benefit the economy. Scott Brusaw‚ an electrical engineer‚ and his wife‚ Julie Brusaw‚ a counselor‚ are the Co-Inventors of Solar Roadways. Solar roadways are a series of structurally engineered solar panels that can be driven on‚ which would replace asphalt roads. Solar Roadways would collect energy and then distribute it to our homes and businesses in order to replace the need for fossil fuels and better the economy. This past February‚ four

Solar power satellites Introduction The Sun is a very powerful‚ clean and convenient source of power‚ particularly for satellites. The only thing needed is a means to convert the energy contained in the Sun’s radiation – mainly light and ultraviolet rays – into electrical power. The most efficient way to achieve this today is by using panels composed of semiconductor photovoltaic cells. ‘Solar panels’‚ as they are usually called‚ are now quite a common sight here on Earth‚ but they were first used
