Best Answer

Because as the technology stands today, electric cars still haven't got the kind of range that people expect from cars. Batteries are expensive, and cahrging takes time. Solar energy used directly isn't enough to power a car, and using it to charge an electric car battery would take ages.

How can solar energy be used to run a television?

solar panels run energy to a controller then to a enough batteries to provide the needed amp hours to run a tv. From the battery you need to have a inverter to turn 12volt to 110volt. The tv runs of this line. First calculate watts per hour the TV use's,then how much time the TV is used ,convert this to amps per hour of use to see how many batteries you will need. Also you have to calculate the amount of solar power . How much sunlight and temp outside also how many panels to supply your needs. PS dont forget the main line should be fused with the correct size fuse
