That depends on total collection area and the collector efficiency.

If you could pave many square miles with high efficiency collectors you would have a very "strong" solar power system. If you only have a single 4 inch diameter solar cell it might not be able to power more than one flashlight bulb.

Can you power a solar panel using a torch or an electrical lamp?

A torch or an electrical lamp will not provide enough light intensity to power a solar panel efficiently. Solar panels need strong sunlight to generate a significant amount of electricity, so using artificial light sources like torches or lamps may not produce enough energy. It's best to place solar panels in direct sunlight for optimal performance.


Is solar power renewable?

No, there is no way to put the power back in the sun.


What form of energy powers a solar power calculator?

A solar power calculator harnesses solar energy from light, which is converted into electrical energy by the solar panel on the calculator. This electrical energy is then used to power the calculator.


Are solar power and solar energy the same?

The term is used to describe either but there is a difference in solar Electricity and solar energy.Solar Energy is a very broad term which can describe Solar electric (PV), Solar Thermal, Solar Heating etc., just about any form of power that can derived from the sun.Solar Power or Solar Electric is generally related to solar photovoltaics, specifically which is taking photons from the sunlight and turning it directly into electrical current.AnswerThe correct term is solar energy panel, despite the term 'solar power panel' being widely used. This is because solar photovoltaic panels supply energy. The rate at which they supply energy is a measure of their power.


What kind of power comes from the sun?

The power that comes from the sun is solar power, which is harnessed through solar panels to generate electricity. Solar power is a renewable source of energy that is sustainable and reduces greenhouse gas emissions.

Where is solar power most effective?

It appears that in the Southwestern states solar power would be the most effective out of the united states as a while. The amount of sunlight and day time that region gets helps power up the panels quickly and efficiently. But the United States as a whole is 3rd in installed PV power worldwide and has strong Solar resources.


If you had a solar power house how would you power your building?

The solar power can power your house. Solar power energy can be used to power many things, it just depends on how many solar panels you have. Tioga Energy specializes in solar power. They install and facilitate the solar panels but the customer agrees to buy power from the power generated from the solar panels.www.tiogaenergy.com
