Would like to know how solar power works. Also what does it takes to build one. How much is the cost. How much will it produce In savings from the electric companys. Is bigger always better. Can we sell this back to the electic company? Sure hope...
Well, I applaud your ingenuity but that is already being done albeit not in massive amounts. It is also more expensive to build a house that is solar powered but people are doing it here and there and in the long run, it does save money. All the...

I don't know that cost is a disadvantage. I keep reading that you can build solar panels yourself for less than $200. At that rate, you wouldn't think the payback period would be very long. I haven't done it myself though, so I guess I can't...
Ok, so I was just wondering how exactly does solar power work? If you can please decribe it as simply as possible.
If you mean photovoltaics, start at the reference.

Photovoltaic cells are solid state devices, meaning they are more akin to microchips than to traditional power plants, and they have no moving parts. In a nutshell: the energy provided by the sun's photons (light) excites electrons in the cell,...
Hi,
I am doing a Solar Powered oven for my science project. For that i wanted to know how solar power works.
I know how it works, but only in detail, so I would like to know how it works but i want it to be basic.
To be brief and basic
Solar power works by capturing photons and converting them to a form of energy that can be used for another purpose.
There are 2 forms. Photovoltaic and thermal.

Solar Energy From the Sahara Desert Could Power the World
As noted in one of our roundup posts last month, the French (a big energy player, of course) are also getting on board the Desertec project now.
How It Works
Most of the solar energy would come from “concentrated solar power” plants, or CSP plants. The CSP plants use both natural gas and solar panels when generating electricity. Each plant holds a number of parabolic troughs – several yards tall – containing receiver tubes above a parabolic mirror and filled with an oil-like heat transfer fluid.
The fluid is heated to 400C (750F) and then used to heat steam in a standard turbine generator. The fluid is then cooled before it is returned to the receiver tubes. During the day, the energy to heat the fluid is all solar; natural gas may be used at night to continue the process. However, the amount of energy produced by fossil fuels is legally limited to 27% of total output.
Solar Power For Homes Is A Trend You Need To Be Updated About ...
Going green has been the battlecry of folks that can’t take the damage given to the Earth by reckless folks. Because of this, they made a decision to push a sterner cry so as to save the world from further damage. They managed to make varied categories of projects and programs that all work for a similar reason of being of help to our world. Among those projects that they managed to implement are solar powers for houses.
The energy of the sun can work in 2 ways. It can offer electricity, or can be use as a heat source. If ever you want to use it for electricity, a solar cell created from photovoltaic cells must be placed in direct sunlight. This gizmo will create an electric current which can be employed as energy. On the other hand, it is for the solar electricity to be utilized in heating purposes. This is widely seen among heat pools that employ solar energy.So as to gather the sunlight, thermal plates are employed. When it comes to their temperature capacity, this would rely on the things that are being heated. For the pool thermal plates, it’s usual for them to contain lower temperature capacity, while medium temperature plates should be employed in cases of hot water heaters.
