companies and individuals to increase the use of solar technology will create good local jobs‚ improve our environment and reduce our dependence on foreign oil while doing what’s ethical and moral for our society. What is solar Photovoltaic (PV)? A solar cell is a photovoltaic cell‚ which comes from photo (light) and voltaic (electricity). It is made of a material called a semiconductor‚ one commonly used is silicon. The basic structure of a PV cell is demonstrated in Figure 1. This semiconductor absorbs

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 provide power to the electric

1.0 Abstract Energy efficiency of a building is becoming an important factor in the new era of building design. GBI Malaysia is developed by PAM and ACEM to drive the Malaysian property industry towards becoming more environment-friendly. Hence‚ incorporation of renewable energy as part of building design directs the development of the building towards being more environmental-friendly and achieve GBI rating. This study is to study the potential of incorporation of solar power and wind power generation

the sun. This energy can be conerted into different energy like heat and electricity. Heat can be used to heat water or heat spaces‚ for example heating for houses‚ buildings or even swimming pools. Solar energy can be converted in two ways‚ by Photovoltaic or “solar cells” which change sunlight directly into electricity or by concentrating solar power plants which generate electricity by using heat from solar thermal collectors. Coal powered energy has played an important role in the advancement

After driving its way through several layers of atmospheres to earth from about ninety-three million miles away‚ the land‚ water‚ and plants soak up about half of it while the other half makes its way back into space. This type of energy is unlike any other. It comes with significant benefits such as not costing money to obtain‚ causing
