Solar Power Energy Outline
Solar power has been used for warmth for thousands of years, and, beginning in
the nineteenth century, as a means of generating energy to provide heat, light, and
electricity.
I.
Solar Energy is the forms of energy emitted by the sun including light,
radio waves and x-rays.
A. Solar energy is the technology used to harness the sun’s energy and make it
useable.
B. Today, the technology produces less than one tenth of one percent of global
energy demand.
C. Electricity can produce by putting solar panels on the roofs of buildings.
II.
These panels have PV cells that convert sunlight to electricity.
A. When sunlight hits the panels, it sets the electrons lose.
B. As the electrons flow through the panels, they generate energy.
C. Another way of electricity production using sun power is the use of turbines.
III.
Solar power has some ways to store it and a lot of advantages.
A. The electricity that is produced during the day can be stored in batteries
for use at night.
B. Solar energy is renewable which means it will never run out.
C. Solar energy does not require any special fuel that needs to be bought.
IV.
Solar energy has some disadvantages, but they are greatly fewer than the
advantages.
A. Solar energy is expensive.
B. Solar energy is limited and is dependent on the weather.
C. The sun doesn't shine in the North Pole for 6 months, so they cannot use
solar power there.
V.
Solar energy is used worldwide.
A. Solar energy is mainly used in Japan, Germany and some others.
B. Japan announced completion of its third solar project, a free field solar
park on Kyushu Island.
C. Out of 42 countries, in Europe, 28 installed solar power capacity
combined make up 70.09% of solar power energy capacity installed
worldwide.
D. Market and business attractiveness are because it is renewable and solar.
In conclusion, solar technology shows no signs of slowing down, if anything, it is
advancing at an unexpected rate. Solar has a long list of meanings in today’s day
and age. It spans various industries and contributes power to hundreds of different
machines and technologies.
