Solar Energy

Solar energy

Solar energy is the energy gained by capturing light and heat emitted by the Sun

The solar radiation reaching the Earth can be used by the heat it produces, as well as through absorption of radiation, eg optical or otherwise. It is a so-called renewable energy, particularly clean group, known as clean energy or green energy. While the end of its useful life, the PV panels can be a difficult pollutant recyclable waste today.

Technology and uses of solar energy

Passive Solar Energy: Harness the sun's heat without mechanisms or mechanical systems.  Solar thermal: To produce low-temperature hot water for sanitary and heating.  Solar photovoltaic panels to produce electricity through semiconductors that are altered by solar radiation.  Solar thermal power: To produce electricity with a conventional thermodynamic cycle from a high temperature heated fluid (thermal oil)  Solar Hybrid: combines solar energy with other energy. According to the energy with which is a hybrid combining:  Renewable: biomass, eólica.3  Fossil.  Solar wind energy: Works with the air heated by the sun, which rises
