Solar Energy

Currently, the most common way to produce SOLAR ENERGY is the use of a system that involves a series of solar panels and storage batteries. Solar panels are devices that absorb energy from sunlight, either for immediate use or storage. This panel collects light and store energy in batteries. Then the light energy is converted into electrical energy. While energy is stored, can be used to operate machines or home appliances. Excess energy is stored for use at night or in other situations where the sunlight is not available for some reason.
SOLAR ENERGY is an energy alternative that involves producing light energy emitted by the sun's radiation and convert it into electrical energy. This energy can be extended, which means that it can be replaced at the same level as used and we can use it again and again. Since the mid-20th century, the ability to produce and utilize this energy has greatly improved. Thus allowing for residential and commercial to utilize renewable energy is not dependent on other conventional ways to produce energy.

Solar technology is widely characterized as passive or active solar depends on how they capture, modify and distribute this energy. Active techniques include the use of solar photovoltaic panels or solar panels and solar thermal collectors to generate energy. Passive solar techniques include building oriented to the Sun, selecting materials with favorable thermal mass or the nature of the spread of light, and design a space that natural air circulation.

Water also can be heated by SOLAR ENERGY. There are various technologies to achieve it, including solar hot water generator on the roof of domestic and solar pool heating. Solar hot water generator to absorb energy from sunlight and uses it to heat water in winter for domestic purposes. Solar pool heater allows the extended use of the swimming pool to the moon and cold nights. A rather spectacular application of solar heating is the solar tower. large solar tower through chimneys rising hot air and drives wind turbines that generate electricity. The first air is heated under a large greenhouse, between 4 to 36 kilometers in diameter.
