READ MORESolar thermal generates energy indirectly by harnessing radiant energy from the sun to heat fluid, either to generate heat, or electricity. To produce electricity, steam produced from heating the fluid is used to power generators. 1 This is different from photovoltaic solar panels, which directly convert the sun''s radiation to electricity. 2.

READ MORESolar energy is any type of energy generated by the sun. Solar energy is created by nuclear fusion that takes place in the sun. Fusion occurs when protons of hydrogen atoms violently collide in the sun''s core and fuse to create a helium atom. This process, known as a PP (proton-proton) chain reaction, emits an enormous amount of
