What is the difference between solar energy and wind energy?

Solar energy is generated by capturing sunlight and converting it into electricity using photovoltaic cells, while wind energy is generated by harnessing the kinetic energy of wind through wind turbines to produce electricity. Solar energy relies on sunlight availability, while wind energy relies on wind speed and consistency. Both types of energy are renewable and clean sources of electricity.
