Solar Power

Solar power is the energy harnessed from the sun’s radiation using various technologies, primarily photovoltaic cells or solar thermal systems. It is a renewable energy source that converts sunlight into usable electricity or heat. Photovoltaic solar power relies on solar panels made of semiconductor materials that generate electricity when exposed to sunlight. Solar thermal power systems, on the other hand, utilize sunlight to heat a fluid, which can then produce steam to drive a turbine and generate electricity. Solar power contributes to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and reliance on fossil fuels, making it a key component of sustainable energy solutions. Its applications range from small-scale residential systems to large solar farms that power entire communities or industries.
