How are solar cells today superior to solar cells of the 1980S?
Advances in technology - coupled with the discovery of more efficient materials, make today's solar cells much more efficient than earlier models.
How can we make solar power more affordable?
As more people buy solar panels the price comes down.
Why is solar energy not yet more widely used?
The panels need a lot of room and the systems are expensive.
What is a another name for solar energy?
Another name for solar energy is solar power. Solar power should be utilized a lot more due to the fact it is so simple! One more name you can take it that is natural resources, for more details please consult renuenergysolutions.com as they are market leader in providing Solar Panels & Solar Energy Installer.
Why are solar panels usually in black?
black absorbs the light! and solar power uses the sun! more sun absorption more solar power! I thought the electrical current was produced by short-wave radiation, not infra-red (heat). in fact, as the heat goes up, the efficiency of the solar cell goes down.
Why are there more coal power plants then solar power plants?
There are more coal plants than solar plants because the cost per Mega-Watt is much less using coal than solar power, and currently coal is more efficient. The problem today is that in a environmentally conscious society coal is a 'dirty' fuel, and solar power is clean. That is why environmentalists are pushing for more Solar (and wind) power generation.
Is solar power better then coal power?
Solar power is more environment friendly than coal power. Solar power is, however, more expensive than coal power.
Who uses solar power?
Lots of people use solar power EG. businesses, homes, air force bases and even the town where the athletes stayed for the 2000 Olympics was entirely solar powered and still is today now more than 3500 homes in that town are solar powered.
Why does solar power increase or decrease?
Because solar inclination changes with the season. In the summer, the solar inclination is greater. That means you have more incident sunlight on your solar panel. More sunlight equals more power.
What is energy that is collected from the sun's radiation?
The energy that is collected from the sun's radiation is referred to as solar power. Solar power can be used in a priority of applications. Solar power is becoming more and more prevalent.
Why is solar power popular in Australia?
Because People Are Rich And They Have More And More Solar Panels And People Have Money To Buy It That's Why Solar Power Is Popular In Australia .
How do you gain power from scarcity?
solar power as in scare area sun rays are more so there we will get solar power OK.

Why is solar energy used widely today?
Solar energy is used more because Al Gore made all the liberals believe that global warming is an actual threat to the earth. It is fact that more scientist know that global warming is not a real problem. ^THIS IS NOT TRUE BUT JUST A PILE OF BULLSH*T^
Is solar power more or less expensive than hydro power?
no no it is not
