Solar energy is based on getting energy from

sunlight. It needs technology.

Solar Energy

The biggest energy source in the world.

An alternative for the fossil fuels.

Used to produce electric or heat.

Environmentally-friendly.

Renewable.

The Advantages and Disadvantages of Solar Energy

Advantages

• It’s a renewable energy source.

• It’s clean and there is no dirty materials such as smoke, gas,

carbon monoxide, sulphur and radiation.

• It’s possible to get solar energy almost everywhere

when there is a necessity of energy.

Sun is an energy source which can be benefited from all countries

in the world. For this reason, the energy dependence of the

countries can be eliminated.

Advantages

There is no need the complex technologies in many

applications.

• It decreases the expences of companies.

• It’s a very silent way to get energy. There is no noise!

Disadvantages

• There is need to have large panels because the amount of

solar radiation is little for a unit cell.

• The amount of solar energy can’t be controlled and it doesn’t

depend on our demand.

• It’s necerray to store it because it’s not permanent. But the

costs of storage is high and limited.

• Energy need is high during winter but solar radiation is low

and moreover there is no at nights.
