Solar Power Stands Out From Renewable Energies

Solar Power Stands Out From Renewable Energies

Will you be a little familiar with solar power? As a new and powerful renewable energy, it works on providing human renewable energy source and solving human survival issues fiercely. Just to refine the definition, what is solar power?

What is a solar power?

 

We get the solar power from the Sun. The nature provides human beings some powerful energies, some of them are nonrenewable and others are renewable. Fortunately, solar power is the former. And we recognized that how to find it, store it and then we get it converted electric current.

Actually, it gets through a complete circuit to finish the energy conversion. In fact, the solar charger can’t be used directly, there is a conversion of sunlight into electricity before it turns into renewable energy solar, either directly using photovoltaics (PV), or indirectly using concentrated solar power (CSP). Concentrated solar power systems use lenses or mirrors and tracking systems to focus a large area of sunlight into a small beam. Photovoltaics convert light into an electric current using the photovoltaic effect.

How is solar energy converted into electricity? A picture will show how solar power works.

Advantages and disadvantages of solar energy

 

Pro: Power supply , environmentally friendly, low cost, new solar inventions

Considered as ‘Renewable Energy’, the solar power contains renewable resource, the sun light, which means once human beings acquire the skills about how to use the solar power that means it will work for us in following year constantly. Solar power is the power supply, renewable energy

In the conversion from sun light to electricity, there is no worry to consider it will cause some pollution. Recently, air pollutants, noise pollution and water pollution throw critical threats to the earth and humans are facing survive issues. At this moment, solar power, as renewable energies, reliefs the immediate sense of crisis of humans.environmentally friendly, solar power avoid to cause pollution

Purchasing electricity directly is costly and area limited. In remote areas, solar power can be used instead of electricity power that saves more extra investment for rural infrastructure construction.

solar power is low cost

Smartphone-addicts try to plug their devices in everywhere they can see, so that’s why power banks come into people’s daily life. But, what should do when the portable power bank is out of power without a portable charger? Hence it, people invented portable solar charger which contains a square of solar panel and an output port. Use the lightweight and folded solar panel as sun light receiver, the solar panel can feed juice to different electronic devices for portability. Especially, the solar panel will be universal once its output port is featured with Smart technology which can detect your device, and output the exact amount of currents your devices may require.solar panel is a new invention about solar power

Con: Time limitation, High cost collectors, area limitation, heavy as a hulk

As mentioned previous, solar energy is converted from sun light energy, whenever the Sun disappears, the solar power vanishes too. Therefore, it can only be harnessed when it is daytime and sunny. It’s a fatal limitation to solar power, although it is a renewable energy, humans can’t have the conversion all the time.

solar power has time limitation

There are two kind of solar power collectors, solar panels and solar cells. Although the solar power is free to us, sun light collectors are relatively expensive to manufacture although prices are falling rapidly. It’s easy to find that a 2 fold/ 4 fold solar panel charger is much expensive than a normal power bank. It’s really worthwhile.

High cost solar collectors solar cells

In countries such as the UK, the unreliable climate means that solar energy is also unreliable as a source of energy. Cloudy skies reduce its effectiveness. Large areas of land are required to capture the suns energy. Collectors are usually arranged together especially when electricity is to be produced and used in the same location.

unreliable climate kills solar power

Solar power is used to charge batteries so that solar powered devices can be used at night. However, the batteries are large and heavy and need storage space. So new solar panels come out to daily life and manufactures aim to minimize the product size and weight for portability.

Solar panel collector are heavy as hulks.

There is a prediction that by 2050, solar photovoltaics and concentrated solar power would contribute about 16 and 11 percent, respectively, of the worldwide electricity consumption, and solar would be the world’s largest source of electricity.

Solar Power Stands Out From Renewable Energies》有167个想法

  1. Solar power helps save the environment, is cleaner and cheaper and provides every person with the basic needs of a digital and electronic world. Why wouldn’t we use it?

  2. Would like to use something like this everyday. But maybe smaller… Small solar power bank.

  3. I love solar. I think all houses should be fitted with them free of charge. We would meet all our targets for renewable energy immediately

  4. Who Would not like clean electric. It is just the cost of equipment why i have not done it.

  5. Would like to install Solar Panels, but the cost is still a little high, and the rate of return of the investment is to long!

  6. Solar power is great, i have panels on my house. it’s cleaner and helps the environment .

  7. There are two main drawbacks limiting the usefulness of solar power 1. the need for expensive storage capacity and 2. the initial cost involved. However it appears for small scale applications the costs may have come down to reasonable level.

  8. Solar power is great! It is a good back up. More of us need to use solar for their house as technology advances and gets cheaper to invest.

  9. I like solar power because I’m a Leo and the Sun is our God. Know it or not it’s quite true. We’d be dead in no time without our sun god. You know it honey chile b

  10. Of course with the finite resources of oil and gas and the irresponsible glut of these resources. It makes sense to keep pushing solar energy

  11. Solar power is great if you can afford it. It takes a large array to generate enough power to use and store for use when the sun is not shining. The alternative of using a connected to grid system has tow distinct disadvantages here 1. the electric company buys the excess power at a fraction of the cost it charges for the power it supplies and 2) if the grid goes down you have no power just like everyone else.

  12. Solar Power is great for the environment so it will always be my choice of power to use.

  13. The place where I live is very hot and sunny, so using solar energy here would be a excellent way to have energy when power supply is failing, like actually is happening in Venezuela

  14. Solar power is great – it is free once you have the technology to capture and store it.

  15. I love any type of clean energy. To harness power from either the wind or sun has to be better for us and the planet.

  16. I like the idea of solar power and it is cost efficient after the initial equipment costs

  17. I love solar power. Power for free. I wish I could fit panels on my roof, but having had a survey, it’s not possible.

  18. Solar is great when you are out camping and there is no direct line to electricity!
