It is regarded as the most available and abundant energy source. The amount of energy generated by the sun in a day is ten thousand times more than what can be used around the globe.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is regarded as clean or renewable energy because it is natural and readily available. You can visit <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">solargraf.com\/blog<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to learn more about renewable energy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These days, thanks to technological advancements, the power of the sun can be harnessed and used in homes and offices. Hence, solar energy accounts for over 1\/8<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">th<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of the total energy sources that are used in the U.S.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This fraction includes the power we use to dry foods, stay warm, and grow crops. Apart from these traditional uses we just mentioned, solar energy is now used to power homes and warm water.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Does_Solar_Power_Work\"><\/span><b>How Does Solar Power Work?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to the government, the sunlight that reaches the surface of the earth within 1 \u00bd hours is sufficient to take care of one year of the entire earth\u2019s energy consumption.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As we said, this power is gotten from the big ball of gas in the sky which is a result of the emission of light via electromagnetic radiation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When solar panels are installed, the sunlight and radiation from the sun are then converted into usable power for our devices. The sun\u2019s heat radiation causes a reaction; this reaction then produces usable electricity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3325 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/fictionpad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/unnamed-32.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"512\" height=\"244\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fictionpad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/unnamed-32.jpg 512w, https:\/\/fictionpad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/unnamed-32-300x143.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_Solar_Radiation_Harmful_to_the_Earth\"><\/span><b>Is Solar Radiation Harmful to the Earth?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The radiation of the sun in itself is not harmful to the earth in any way. The earth itself absorbs 70 percent of the sun\u2019s radiation while 30 percent reflects into space. The amount of energy that comes from the sun as well as that which returns into space determines the average earth\u2019s temperature.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The danger however lies with the greenhouse gases that are produced due to fossil fuels that are burning. These gases trap solar radiation which causes a rise in the temperature of our planet.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_Process_of_Producing_Solar_Power\"><\/span><b>What is the Process of Producing Solar Power?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The radiation from the sun is captured by the PV (photovoltaic) cells within the panels. The trapped radiation is then transformed into useable electricity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The panels used for this process are usually made up of more than 60 cells and are of two types which are monocrystalline and polycrystalline. The wattage difference between these two is marginal.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although both types perform the same functions, a single <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Silicon\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">silicon<\/a> crystal is used to manufacture monocrystalline panel cells while several melted fragments of silicon are used to manufacture polycrystalline panel cells.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Monocrystalline panels are much more expensive, sleeker-looking, and possess better conversion efficiencies. On the other hand, polycrystalline panels are cheaper, less attractive, and possess somewhat lower efficiencies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For the transformation of the radiation into useable electricity to be successful, an intricate process that involves the panels, PV (photovoltaic) module, inverters, wiring, etc. must occur.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The cells\u2019 core consists of the PV (photovoltaic) module which when hit by sunlight causes the individual cells to produce DC (direct current) voltage. DC (direct current) and AC (alternating current) wiring are the elements that switch on or off the power from the system\u2019s inverter.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The inverter\u2019s job is to take the direct current voltage from the panel or\/and batteries and then convert it into alternating current which can then be used in the home or office or the grid.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sometimes, batteries are installed for the purpose of storing unused power which you can use there is little or no sunlight (at night or on cloudy days).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The current is also regulated into the PV batteries with the aid of solar controllers. Electricity is produced as a result of the components and processes we just described above.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3326 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/fictionpad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/unnamed-33.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"512\" height=\"341\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fictionpad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/unnamed-33.jpg 512w, https:\/\/fictionpad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/unnamed-33-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_Cost_of_Solar_Power\"><\/span><b>What is the Cost of Solar Power?\u00a0<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0Thanks to the advancement in technology, the cost of panels is on a decline. The price however is dependent on the federal solar tax credit and the size of the system itself. Hence, a system of 10 kilowatts falls within a range of $17,650 &#8211; $23,828 whereas the average cost per watt has a range of $2.40 &#8211; $3.22.
