Solar Energy 01-15-2014 Rebekah Layton Solar Energy‚ a type of energy not extracted from the ground‚ but instead‚ emitted by the sun. 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

Solar Energy In 1839 Alexander Edmond Becquerel discovered the photovoltaic effect which explains how electricity can be generated from sunlight. He claimed that an electrode submerged in a conductive solution would create an electric current. ‘However even after much research and development subsequent to the discovery‚ photovoltaic power continued to be very inefficient a solar cell were used mainly for the purposes of measuring light. Solar energy is radiant light and

Conserving Energy to Save Money According to an article and graph published in The New York Times‚ “About 56 percent of all the energy that is produced in the United States is wasted” (Revkin). With all that energy being wasted‚ Americans cannot afford to waste much more. There are a number of things a homeowner can do around and to their household to conserve energy and save money at the same time. They can turn off unneeded electricity and try other sources‚ such as renewable energy to conserve

All solar lights are “wireless”. They are not “hooked up” to external sources of power. Solar lights produce no pollution and cause no harmful environmental effects. Once installed‚ energy is free Fourteen solar farms have a combined installed capacity of 388.4 megawatts and in 2011 generated 0.1 billion kilowatt-hours. (Source: Canadian Centre for Energy Information compilation‚ 2013) There are now 3‚133 megawatts of solar power installed in the U.S. That’s enough to power nearly 3 million homes
