There must be a source of sufficient light. Ie. Solar energy is only charging half the time on earth, as we spin and only face the sun half the time!
disadvantages of solar energy opposed to fossil fuel?
Limited Resourses
Solar power is of course limited by the amount of solar radiation that reaches an area. If the weather is overcast or the sun is occluded, the amount of power that is able to be generated is limited.
Solar power is another way for us to harness energy. Natural resources such as coal and oil are limited resources and we are using them quickly. Solar energy is also better for the environment.
Solar energy is essentially inexhaustible on a human timescale, as the sun is expected to continue radiating energy for billions of years. However, the amount of solar energy that can be harvested on Earth is limited by factors such as geographical location, weather conditions, and technological limitations.
No, desalination is not limited to areas with abundant solar energy. While solar energy can be utilized in some desalination methods, such as solar stills or solar-powered reverse osmosis, desalination can also be powered by other energy sources, including fossil fuels, nuclear energy, and grid electricity. Various technologies, such as reverse osmosis and multi-stage flash distillation, can be employed in diverse environments, making desalination feasible in regions with limited solar availability.
if by solar energy you mean sun rays then no,it should be plentiful in the day and limited in the night just like any other place in the world. However if you are talking about aquiring energy which is produced through solar panels then i am not sure.
because then it would be to easy to solve all of our problems.
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?
Solar energy is still not as cost-effective as traditional fossil fuels, requiring a significant investment in solar panels and infrastructure. In addition, solar energy is intermittent and its storage technology is still developing. Factors like weather and location can also affect its efficiency, limiting its widespread use.
the suns energy is solar energy because sun means solar so solar energy is from the sun
Solar systems get their energy from the sun. Solar energy is captured by a solar panel, or collector. This panel converts solar energy to electrical energy.
