Solar energy is all that is derived directly from the sun. There are many other forms of energy that indirectly derive from the sun. For example, most of the energy sources in use today such as gas, coal and oil are very old biological materials that derive their energy from the sun. In the same way, the energy contained in the wood ultimately has its origin in the sun, through the process known as photosynthesis.<\/p>\n

However, when we mention solar energy we usually refer to the direct energy of the sun. This type of energy, in general, refers to the generation of heat or electricity through the sun.<\/p>\n

Sunlight can be making use of straight to produce electricity. The employ of photovoltaic cells or solar panels is increasingly common as an efficient and low-cost alternative to generating electricity.<\/p>\n

The concentration of solar energy in the form of heat is another way to take advantage of this form of energy. In the domestic environment, solar water heaters are used, which reduce the consumption of other forms of energy such as gas or electricity. There are also advanced technologies to concentrate the heat of the sun in power plants generating electricity for industrial or commercial uses.<\/p>\n

Solar energy has many advantages over other sources of energy. Below are some solar energy pros and cons:<\/p>\n
