 Solar Power

Conversion of energy from sunlight to electricity

Photovoltaics solar panels which convert sunlight
directly to electric power
Concentrated solar power use mirror or lenses to
concentrate a large area of sunlight to small area
 Benefits of solar power

Helps to slow down or stop global warming

Prevents emission of harmful gasses
Prevents the loss of non renewable resources
 Solar Panels
Panels designed to absorb the suns rays
as a source of energy for generating
electricity

Very sensitive to shading and tilting

Works by allowing particles of light to

knock electron free of atoms,
generating a flow of electricity
 Benefits of using
solar panel
Non Polluting
Renewable Source
Easy Installation
Can be used in remote
locations
Long lasting Solar
Cells
 Transparent Solar Spray
Transforms Windows Into Watts

Spray-on solar film that allows windows to generate solar

power without clouding the view.

a Norwegian company called EnSol AS developed a

remarkable new spray-on solar film consisting of metal
nanoparticles embedded in a transparent composite matrix
that allows you to turn ordinary windows into solar panels. The
cells dont just work on glass they can be used on the rest of
the house also. It contains ultra-thin solar cells, making them
far more versatile.

Helps to slow/stop global warming

Global warming threatens the survival of human society, as well as the survival of
countless species. Luckily, decades of research have led to efficient solar panel
system that create electricity without producing global warming pollution. Solar
power is now very clearly one of the most important solution to the global warming
crisis.
Helps you to save money
Creates no pollution
Burning oil to create energy releases CO2 and other harmful greenhouse
gases into the atmosphere. In fact, the production of electricity is responsible
for more than one third of U.S. global warming emissions. But unlike burning fuel, the
sun shines whether we use it for power or not, and harnessing solar power does not
release any pollution into the air.
Reduces air pollution: Harmful carbon dioxide and methane emissions from
fossil fuels, our traditional energy source, are leading contributors to global warming
and decreased air quality.
There are continual advancements in solar panel technology
which are increasing the efficiency and lowering the cost of
production, thus making it even more cost effective.

its energy actually taken from the sun which means that its
natural and less harmful for our planet so it could keep our
environment clean.

 Benefits of a
Solar Powered
Car
 Gasoline independence: A solar based car is essentially gasoline
independent and along these lines it is easy on your pocket and the
environment. A traditional car adds to the all ready high air pollution levels,
whereas, a solar powered car does not produce any harmful emissions.
Solar cars are noiseless: A solar powered car is exceptionally quiet and runs
noiselessly, thereby, cutting the noise pollution that comes complimentary
with fuel-driven cars.
Longer life span: A solar car can easily last decades without any expensive
regular upkeep.
Low maintenance: The solar vehicles are specially designed to be low
maintenance and can be easily maintained to last years with general
cleaning of the solar panels.
Eco-friendly: One of the most significant benefits of a solar powered vehicle
is that it is highly nature-friendly. Solar powered automobiles produce a
negligible amount of greenhouse gasses that are responsible for the
depletion of the protective ozone layer.
Renewable and infinite source of energy: The sun is one of the biggest
renewable sources of energy and running solar powered vehicles does not
require any natural resources that are on the verge of extinction.
