Is Solar Power The Immediate Answer To Our Energy Woes ?
The world has placed virtually all its eggs in one energy source
basket…the earth’s oil, gas and coal fossil fuel reserves. It must now learn how to slowly wean itself from it. The question is…”where do we
turn for the new source that will turn our energy wheels ?”
The History Of Solar Power
With the recent rise in energy costs many people have been looking to alternative sources of energy. One of the greatest energy sources (our sun) is readily available for the taking. We just need to be able to harness it’s power. For those interested, below is a brief history of how solar power came to be.
The history of photovoltaic energy (aka. solar cells) started way back in 1876. William Grylls Adams along with a student of his, Richard Day, discovered that when selen…
