Advantages and disadvantages of solar energy: The major benefit of solar is avoiding green house gases that fossil fuels produce. The first and foremost advantage of solar energy is that it does not emit any greenhouse gases. Solar energy is produced by conducting the sun’s radiation – a process void of any smoke‚ gas‚ or other chemical by-product. This is the main driving force behind all green energy technology‚ as nations attempt to meet climate change obligations in curbing emissions. Italy’s

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

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

scenarios for a model in which a complete enumeration of all possible states of the model would be prohibitive or impossible. Computer models were initially used as a supplement for other arguments‚ but their use later became rather widespread. The Solar System consists of the Sun and those celestial objects bound to it by gravity‚ all of which formed from the collapse of a giant molecular cloud approximately 4.6 billion years ago of the retinue of objects that orbit the Sun‚ most of the mass is contained

Solar Desalination Plant In Cali When one hears about desalination‚ you think about maybe if you are stranded and there are no other drinking waters available‚ you make do with the salt water and desalinizing the water. But in places where water is hard to come by or there isn’t much rainfall year round‚ desalinizing wastewater into drinkable water is an alternative. Which is why California is planning on building a solar desalination plant in order to bring more freshwater for people in the Central

SOLAR SYSTEM About 5 Billion years ago‚ y There was no Sun‚ no Earth& no Moon y Only cosmic dust and gasses drifted in the darkness of space SOLAR SYSTEM THEORY The solar system was formed by a slowly spinning cloud of gas and cosmic dust‚ gradually the cloud began to spin faster and faster this formed a large spinning whirl at the centre and smaller whirls surrounding it at various distances. SOLAR SYSTEM THEORY The huge and heavy centre became hot enough to start thermo nuclear

A solar car is an electric vehicle powered by solar energy. This is the result obtained from solar panels on the surface (usually the top) of the vehicle. Photovoltaic cells integrated into the panels convert the sun’s energy directly into electrical energy‚ electricity is captured and then stored in batteries that power the electric motor of the car. Electrical systems and electronic control the operation from capture to storage of solar energy received."In 1982‚ the Australian Hans Tholstrup built
