Harnessing Solar Energy: A Sustainable Future

Solar energy is generated through the use of solar panels that absorb sunlight and convert it into electricity. This renewable energy source is derived from the sun, making it sustainable and eco-friendly. Solar energy has been utilized by humans for centuries, starting with ancient civilizations for heating. Today, it is primarily used to heat water and power homes. While solar energy is abundant and free, its initial setup can be costly, and some regions may not receive enough sunlight year-round.
