What is solar energy and why solar energy?Updated a year ago

Solar Energy is a kind of renewable energy. It refers to the heat radiation energy of the sun, and its main producer is sunlight. In modern times, it is generally used to generate electricity or provide energy for on and off-grid applications. 

4 Benefits of Going Solar:

(1) Universal: the sun shines all over. Whether that be by land, sea, mountains, or islands. This type of energy is direct and easy to collect, without mining and transportation.

(2) Harmless: the development and utilization of solar energy will not pollute the environment. It is one of the cleanest energy sources as of right now, as well as being extremely valuable in today's increasingly serious environmental pollution.

(3) Large-scale: the solar radiation energy reaching the earth's surface every year is about 130 trillion tons of coal, which is the largest energy source in the world.

(4) Sustainable: according to the estimation of the rate of nuclear energy generated by the sun, the storage of hydrogen is enough to maintain tens of billions of years, and the life span of the earth is about billions of years. In this sense, the energy of the sun is inexhaustible.
