No. I live in California and have solar panels on my house. I am not on the equator.
What else can I help you with?
Is solar energy only available during summer?
Depends on where you are on the world. Solar energy is only available when the sun shines. Close to the equator, solar energy is about equally available year round. further away from the equator, the availability of solar energy is about proportional to the amount and intensity of sunlight.
Why do the poles receive more solar energy then the equator does?
They don't. The equator receives more solar energy per area unit than the poles do.
What is the belt of maximum solar energy input to Earth?
The belt of maximum solar energy input to Earth is the Equator. This is because the Sun's rays hit the Earth more directly at the Equator, resulting in more intense solar radiation compared to other latitudes.
What are the disadvantages of using wind energy and solar energy?
Solar energy is not available when the day is cloudy.Wind energy is not available when wind is not blowing.
What part of the earth receives the most solar energy?
The equator.
Is the equator where there is the most solar radiation?
Yes, the equator generally receives the most solar radiation due to its direct exposure to the sun throughout the year. The sun's rays strike the equator more directly compared to higher latitudes, leading to consistently higher temperatures and more intense solar energy. This results in minimal seasonal variation in solar radiation at the equator, making it the region with the highest average solar energy received.
What quiestions are there about solar energy?
A question about solar energy could be: what is solar energy?: what does solar energy do?:does solar energy do anything for the earth/planet?
What region of the earth Near the equator receives the most solar energy-?
The region near the equator that receives the most solar energy is the Tropics, also known as the Intertropical Zone. This area receives the most direct sunlight throughout the year due to its proximity to the equator and experiences consistent high temperatures and solar radiation levels.
What latitude receives the most intense solar energy on March 21 and September 22?
The equator, which is at 0 degrees latitude, receives the most intense solar energy on March 21 and September 22 due to being closest to the sun during the equinoxes. At this time, the sun is directly overhead at noon at the equator, providing maximum solar energy.
Why would Solar Energy be best for South African conditions?
closer to the equator thus creating hotter temperatures which gives off better solar energy.
What region of the earth near the equator received the most solar energy?
The Atacama desert
What region of the earths near the equator receives the most solar energy?
