SOLAR ENERGY FACTS
We have already come across the fact that solar power is ultra-affordable. In a conjecture before 2020, it was stated that solar powered electricity would cost 1 cent per kilowatt every hour.
SOLAR ENERGY FACTS
Australia is expected to create the largest battery storage and solar plant in the world having an efficiency of about 30 MW with around 3 million solar panels and 1 million batteries.
SOLAR ENERGY FACTS
In a report, it is stated that Germany has the highest photovoltaic efficiency and solar capacity followed by China, the USA, and Japan.
SOLAR ENERGY FACTS
The photovoltaic concept, i.e, the process of converting sunlight into energy, was first discovered and introduced by Alexandre Edmond Becquerel in the year 1839. In 1941, the first ever solar panel or photovoltaic module was established by Russell Ohl.

SOLAR ENERGY FACTS
It is found that each household that has installed solar panels and performs its chores on solar energy can save up to $1300 in total at the end of a year.
SOLAR ENERGY FACTS
An interesting fact is that plants, trees, and microorganisms have been using solar energy since the beginning of life on earth, much before human beings.
SOLAR ENERGY FACTS
Study shows that the total solar energy received by earth is 10000 times greater than the total energy utilized by the earth.
SOLAR ENERGY FACTS
In 1954, the first ever solar cell based on silicon was discovered and established by Bell Laboratories.
SOLAR ENERGY FACTS
More than 200 households can be powered in order to do their domestic chores with just 1 megawatt of solar energy.
SOLAR ENERGY FACTS
Many countries like Japan and China have introduced automation and use robots and computers based on solar energy.
SOLAR ENERGY FACTS
Due to its usability and efficiency, many states have made it compulsory for newly built buildings to use power based on solar energy.
SOLAR ENERGY FACTS
Owing to its high demand and a large number of benefits, many coal mines are now being transformed into power plants based on solar energy.
SOLAR ENERGY FACTS
Usage of solar energy provides health benefits as well by avoiding pollution. It is estimated that more than 25000 lives can be saved by using solar power. Air, water, and other natural resources become pollution free, which in turn, helps to improve the function of the lungs, heart, and other organs of human beings.
SOLAR ENERGY FACTS
Due to the sustainable and inexhaustible nature of solar energy, it is now increasingly being used in cookwares to foster the process of making food and add convenience for the users. One such example is solar powered cookers.
SOLAR ENERGY FACTS
Solar power can also be used to charge batteries of cell phones, tablets, vehicles, computers, and other machines.
SOLAR ENERGY FACTS
Solar lights can be utilized to give luminosity to not only homes but public properties like railways, airports, highways, playgrounds, etc. Solar lighting can also be used for industrial and commercial lighting. Due to the easy installation and conventional value, many states are induced to introduce solar power in day to day activities of the states.
SOLAR ENERGY FACTS
The measurement unit of solar power is watts, where 1000 watts is equivalent to 1 kilowatt, 1000 kilowatt is equal to 1 megawatt and a total of 1000 megawatt is equivalent to 1 gigawatt. Following that, 1000 gigawatt totals to 1 terawatt, and finally, 1000 terawatt is equal to 1 petawatt.
SOLAR ENERGY FACTS
To supply solar power to the entire earth, we will need to install solar panels covering an area of about 191000 square miles out of the total 57 million square miles of land that the earth has.
SOLAR ENERGY FACTS
It has been proven that the solar panels facing the south in the United States of America are the most efficient and effective ones.
SOLAR ENERGY FACTS
Usually, the quintessential solar panels are installed along with inverters so that the direct current (DC) power can be transformed into alternating current (AC) power to have usability.

SOLAR ENERGY FACTS
Besides being light on the budget, solar energy is being highly preferred for industrial uses to prevent corrosion reaction of pipes. Solar energy also makes it easy for industries to take adequate care of heavy plants and equipment.
SOLAR ENERGY FACTS
During emergencies, solar energy is the fastest solution to provide relief from crises.
SOLAR ENERGY FACTS
It is stated that monocrystalline solar panels have a less bright appearance and are more efficient rather than polycrystalline solar panels which have more of a blue outlook.
SOLAR ENERGY FACTS
Most solar panels are found to be unalterable or rigid. However, the non rigid or flexible ones are often utilized for frolic vehicles and compact or small-scale production of energy.
