Solar power is the conversion of energy from sunlight into electricity or heat. This process can be achieved through various technologies, the most common being photovoltaic (PV) cells, which convert sunlight directly into electricity, and solar thermal systems, which use sunlight to heat fluids that can then generate steam to produce electricity. Solar power is considered a renewable energy source, as it harnesses energy from the sun, which is abundant and sustainable. It is used in residential, commercial, and industrial applications and is a key component in efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and combat climate change. The growth of solar power technologies has led to significant advancements in efficiency and reductions in costs, making it an increasingly popular choice for clean energy generation worldwide.
