advantage: u get money from the government and u dont need to keep on paying.
disadvantage: aren't really fashionable. cost loads to buy. do not work at night.
In bulgeria a man and his family died because of rain which leaked through the side and caused the solar panel to explode house burnt down
ONLY BUY IF YOU LIVE IN HOT SUNNY COUNTRIES or if your poor
MY opinion COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEy
in sudan a man had free electricity for a year because of a drought

Solar power is used synonymously with solar energy or more specifically to refer to the conversion of sunlight into electricity. This can be done either through the photovoltaic effect or by heating a transfer fluid to produce steam to run a generator.
The Anglo-Norman French term which was variously spelled soler, solair, solere,solier, seler simply means an upper room. It derives from Latin solium, which has a number of different meanings.Essentially a solar was a private room on the first (upstairs) floor of a manor house or town house of stone construction, for the sole use of the nobleman and his family. It might be heated with charcoal braziers and there might be seats built into the window-openings so that women could sit and look at the view or have maximum light for needlework. Servants would not generally be permitted into the solar, except perhaps for the lady's personal maid.
Without our daily fix of solar energy, the Earth would soon approach the temperature of space - not a pleasant prospect. You have to only consider how much it cools down on a single winter night to have your answer. If your question concerns technical systems that usefully convert solar energy to other forms; solar water heating, photo-voltaic energy, etc; then we are at the dawn of using this energy source more usefully. In doing so, we displace other less effective means of doing the same job. Coal fired energy plants would be an example, as are petroleum powered vehicles.
In regions of high temperate climates, houses are typically designed to withstand significant seasonal temperature variations. These homes often feature well-insulated walls and roofs to retain heat during cold winters and cool air during hot summers. Materials like wood, brick, and stone are commonly used, along with large windows for natural light and passive solar heating. Additionally, homes may include overhangs or awnings to provide shade in summer while allowing sunlight to warm interiors in winter.
Solar ship i think :)

Active Solar Heating and Passive solar Heating.
The two types of solar heating systems are active solar heating systems, which use pumps and fans to circulate air or fluid, and passive solar heating systems, which rely on building design and materials to capture and store heat from the sun.
Passive solar heating systems harness solar energy through the design and orientation of a building's windows, walls, and materials to maximize heat absorption. Active solar heating systems use solar collectors, such as solar panels or thermal collectors, to capture solar radiation and convert it into heat for space heating or hot water.
With south-facing glass, passive solar heat can be used in heating any home or building.
passive solar-heating system, and active solar-heating system are two types of heating system.. =D By: Wilfred Castro.
there isn't
active and passiveBy: Jokara Walters
passive solar heating
solar collectors are parts of all solar energy systems passive systems dont move pumps, fans, trackers are parts of active solar systems
they do not produce electricity Novanet
well according to my research the active solar heating system captures solar radiation through mirrors and mirror plates. passive solar heating systems use the architectural design and construction material of a building.
