READ MORESolar thermal energy can also be used to heat the air in a building. This type of system is called "solar space heating." This type of system is often used in climates where the winters are cold and there is a lot of sunshine. Solar thermal energy can also be used to produce ice. This type of system is called "solar cooling."
READ MORESolar power is the flow of energy from the sun. The primary forms of solar energy are heat and light. Sunlight and heat are transformed and absorbed by the environment in a multitude of ways. Some of these transformations result in renewable energy flows such as biomass, wind and waves. Effects such as the jet stream, the Gulf Stream and the
