If all buses put solar panels on top then the price of solar panels wo Read More... -
Solar Energy - How Can We Use It?
SOLAR ENERGY What is Solar Energy? Solar energy is energy that is produced from our sun. The sun is generating about 3.9x 1026 watts, or 390,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 watts of energy. Some of this energy can now be captured and converted into heat or electrical energy. There are 4 main ways that solar energy from the sun is captured, these are: • Flat plate liquid filled solar panels for water heating • Flat Plate Gas filled solar panels Read More... -
About Solar Energy Panels
What is a solar energy panel? A solar energy panel collects energy from the sunlight and converts it into direct current (DC) electricity. Two oppositely charged slices of silicon are placed together below a piece of glass and as the protons in the sunlight knock the negatively charged neutrons away from the silicon the electric field created by the two adjoining pieces of silicon attract the neutron. Small pieces of wire catch the neutrons and Read More...
