The solar energy and its conversion into electricity, details, advantages, facts, and uses

Solar Energy: This form of energy relies on the nuclear fusion power from the core of the Sun. This energy can be collected and converted in a few different ways. The range is from solar water heating with solar collectors or attic cooling with solar attic fans for domestic use to the complex technologies of direct conversion of sunlight to electrical energy using mirrors and boilers or photovoltaic cells. Unfortunately, these are currently insufficient to fully power our modern society.

A complete DC Solar energy system will cost between Rs 25,000 - 35,000 including the battery cost, DC Fans, and Lights. Solar Panel used directly with an appliance or devices. The energy from Solar Panel saved in batteries.

The sun is also a very hot ball of gas. Its surface is about 6,000 degrees Celsius, and the sun gets even warmer the further you travel toward its center. This is because a process, called nuclear fusion, takes place at the center of the sun. Nuclear fusion is what happens when small nuclei are fused together to form heavier nuclei. The process requires a lot of heat, which is why a sun is an ideal place for it to occur. This process also generates a lot of energy.
