solar energy
This document discusses solar energy and photovoltaic panels. It begins by defining solar energy as energy from the sun that can be harnessed using sensors and is renewable. It then describes photovoltaic panels, the two main types of solar power stations, and how photovoltaic panels work to convert sunlight into electricity. The document also covers the costs of solar energy, its advantages like being pollution-free and relying on a abundant source, and disadvantages such as high initial costs and reliance on weather conditions. In closing, it states that solar energy has minimal environmental impacts.
