Solar technology refers to the methods and systems used to harness solar energy, which is the energy derived from the sun’s radiation. It encompasses a variety of applications and innovations aimed at capturing sunlight and converting it into usable forms of energy, primarily electricity and heat. Solar technology includes photovoltaic systems that convert sunlight directly into electricity using solar panels, as well as solar thermal systems that use sunlight to heat water or other fluids for residential and commercial heating applications. Additionally, solar technology can involve solar concentrators, which use mirrors or lenses to focus sunlight onto a small area to produce high temperatures for various energy generation processes. The development and deployment of solar technology are essential for promoting renewable energy sources, reducing reliance on fossil fuels, and addressing environmental concerns related to climate change.
