Why you should choose to use Solar Power

Life on earth is fueled by the light and heat from the sun. Approximately, 3850 Zettajoules (ZJ) per year is the total amount of solar energy available to the earth. The suns energy travels to the earth by way of electromagnetic radiation like radio waves but the frequency range is different. Some of this energy is absorbed as it comes thru the atmosphere. Heat and light are the primary forms of solar energy. Read more

What is Solar Energy

In order to know where to find solar energy you must first know what solar energy is. Solar energy is energy from the sun. When the sun is shining solar energy is being produced as it sends the heat radiating to the earth. You can find solar energy anywhere or anything that the sun can shine on.  There is a way that you can save the sunlight in order to provide heat during the cold, which is what millions of people have done throughout the years.  It started thousands of years ago when people where able to use a thick lens or magnifying glass on an object that would attract the sun rays on that particular object and could get so hot it would catch fire.  This gave a new prospective on how strong the heat from the sun really was.

Build your own Solar Panel

You probably already know that it is possible to harness energy from the sun and turn it into electricity. You may even know it is done with a photovoltaic cell, also called a soar cell. You also might know the biggest problem with solar power right now is how expensive it is. But there is a better way, you can build solar panels at home! Read more
