Solar Energy

By Clarissa



Solar Energy is one of the best renewable resources that we have on this earth. We just need to decide what to do with it. We already have solar cells that are also called photovoltaic cells. As every one knows, they change the sun's energy into electricity. But what else could we do with the power that the sun has? We on earth are getting only a fraction of what the sun could provide for us. Our only problem is how to harness this power. In the future, we could use this power to run our homes, car, street lights, and everything else that needs to be powered. But there are a few disadvantages to solar power. The sun shines in various places at different times. There is no place on earth where we could get a continues ray of sun. But with technology improving, anything is possible.
