Fact 7: Solar energy can be collected and stored in batteries, absorbed and transmitted.
Solar energy is the most abundant source of energy available to mankind. We will never run out of solar energy unless the sun dies. According to Wikipedia, there will another 7.8 billion years before the sun reach the next phase of evolution. This is the stage in which helium fusion will begin producing carbon and oxygen. By then, human race will either no longer exist or already came up with a solution to scope with the problem.
Beside it availability, it also have many useful characteristics that make it one of the most suitable form of energy. These characteristics are listed below:
Collect & Store:
Like most energy sources, solar energy can be collected and stored in almost any form of storage designed to hold energy. Energy storage like battery is very important if we want to involve solar energy in our modern way of life. We demand energy almost anytime and we expected to be available immediately. This is a problem since solar energy only available during daylight. For this reason, storing energy is a very crucial application. This application is usually integrated into solar photovoltaic system where energy collected and stored almost instantaneously.
In a typical photovoltaic system, sunlight shines upon the photovoltaic modules. Next, solar cells convert light energy into electrical energy producing direct current (DC). This current is stored directly into a battery. Since our home use Alternating Current (AC), an inverter is connected to the battery to convert from DC to AC. With this typical arrangement, solar energy can be effectively used to power our home.
Absorb:
According to the first law of thermodynamic, energy cannot be created or destroyed. Energy can only be transferred from one system or another. This concept spawns the property in which energy can be absorbed by a system or object. As solar energy shine upon the earth, any objects that are exposing to sunlight will have the potential to absorbed energy. For instance, if you leave your car outside on a sunny day it will become hotter as it slowly absorbing solar energy. With this basic property, we are indirectly obtained energy from the sun to power our everyday activities.
Transmit:
An interesting fact about nature is that there is an opposite of everything. If energy can be absorbed then it should be able to transmit. In fact, if no energy is transmitted then there is no energy to absorb. Therefore, the transmit property of energy is also very important.

Hi …
please send me the last information about new photocells .
thank you in advance,
solar enerrrrrrrrrrgy is on any website you go to
hi im in a chat box thingy!!!
why cant you do it kazem and what kind of name is that kazem
i need to get the instruction book
Please if possible could you mail me the brochure if any on how to instal solar energy in my home.
Thanks
Yomi
i wan to know how i can calculate the energy in kva needed for an average home.thanks
pls send me the diagram and matterias
needed for installation of solar energy
in my house.
hey ppl! i need to know y solar energy is available all the time…..
thanks in advance!!
Soler energy is doing ok to me.
pls send me the diagram and matterias
needed for installation of solar energy
in my house.
pls send me the diagram and matterias
needed for installation of solar energy
in my house
Iwant to know how i can calculate the energy in kva needed for an average home.thanks
Seems promising future of solar energy, if any body can send me practical information to set up solar energy system in my home.
thanks
how i can make a solar cell…if possible pls send me da procedure….
Awsome,I can’t wait to have my Solar Panel installed. I think it should be mandatory. It’s great that Our Governments have allocated funds to assist people with the installation costs. I also think that education on this should be a mandatory part of school’s curriculum. We need to take an active role in the preservation of our Home, being our Planet as Our Earth is the only planet that can sustain life for us. Solar Energy will significantly reduce our need for coal therefore less carbon emmisions, followed by much needed reduction of the expansion of the hole in the ozone layer. God Bless Xoxo
For usage of 1kv power to my house by solar how much panels and batterys should i connect.please tell me the calculation and also connection diagram.thank you.
