Solar energy converts sunlight into electricity through photovoltaic cells or solar thermal systems. Its main advantages include zero emissions and solar costs are now well below those of new coal and natural gas plants.
Solar energy is radiation from the Sun that is capable of producing heat, causing chemical reactions, or generating electricity. The total amount of solar energy incident on Earth is vastly in excess of the world’s energy requirements and could satisfy all future energy needs if suitably harnessed.
Solar technologies are categorized as either passive or active depending on the way they capture, convert and distribute sunlight and enable solar energy to be harnessed at different levels around the world, mostly depending on the distance from the Equator.
In a nutshell, solar panels generate electricity when photons (those particles of sunlight we just discussed) hit solar cells. The process is called the photovoltaic effect.
