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

Final Draft Solar Energy: Powering Our Future Today nearly half of the world’s energy is provided by petroleum. What began as a cheap and abundant way to provide energy‚ has become expensive‚ environmentally harmful‚ and finite. With population explosions and the demands of modern lifestyles‚ the world’s need for energy production has become far too much for fossil fuels to keep up with. Experts say that the Earth’s stores of petroleum will be depleted by 2050

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

HISTORY OF SOLAR ENERGY Jake Tutorow Indiana Institute of Technology Fort Wayne‚ IN Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to explain the history of solar energy as well as the difficulties faced in acquiring government support and investments for infrastructure and technological gains. The history of solar energy is broken into five distinct categories: Earth energy‚ the ancient solar age‚ the modern solar age‚ solar in the 1950s‚ solar today‚ and agriculture. Earth energy focuses on the understanding

harnesses the power of clean‚ renewable energy will lead the 21st century” President Barack Obama (Presidential Address to Congress‚ 2/24/09) Solar energy is the cleanest‚ most abundant‚ renewable energy source available which described as the sun’s rays that reach the earth and can then be converted into either thermal (heat) or electricity. Solar energy converted into heat can be used to: heat water for use in homes and buildings and heat spaces. Solar energy can be converted into electricity in

The Benefits of Solar Energy Melissa Strayer University English 215 July 20‚ 2012 The Benefits of Solar Energy Solar energy represents the future of a clean earth in days to come; it also represents the clean air that our children and their children will breathe. We constantly have to worry about pollutants in our air from all of the many harmful chemicals being thrown into the air by fossil fuels; we never stop to think about how this will affect our children‚ and it’s time that we start

Energy Proposal for the Metropolitan Env/362 Energy Proposal for the Metropolitan Area As the metropolitan area of McAllen‚ Texas continues to grow at a 4.8% annually‚ the necessity of renewable energy becomes more of a possibility to provide energy for the people this area ("Mcallen‚ Texas Population"‚ 2014).. Geographically we are close to the Rio Grande River and about 45 miles from the Gulf of Mexico shoreline at South Padre Island. The possibility of acquiring technology to

natural gas are limited‚ nuclear energy is dangerous‚ and then there is solar energy: clean‚ abundant and safe. It is already used around the Earth to give energy to those huge satellites into orbit but also in the surface of the Earth to provide electricity to many houses or other structures in need of energy. Indeed solar energy may be the most important renewable source of energy for the moment. However installations allowing using the solar energy such as solar panels are still very expensive
