Every day, the sun radiates more energy than all our fuel consumptions but most of this is absorbed by either plants, the ground or the oceans and used as heat energy to keep us warm and keep things alive Obviously, we are not always going to have solar energy, there will be disasters, rain, cloud, even a shadow can effect the amount of solar energy produced, it is not a stable form of energy The production of solar panels will require huge factories, silicon, vacuum and lots of heat, despite the fact that you can make a solar panel at home to demonstrate things, it is just inefficient. We could consider using the heat energy to do some cooking or dry some clothes. It can be done using solar cookers which cost next to nothing to build. But the main disadvantages of solar energy are these things: # Solar panels too expensive # Not stable # requires a lot of space(use up the deserts, but you have to make sure that solar panels does not break or get blown all over the place) # Batteries&Inverters needed for homemade solar energy
