Solar Technology

Solar Technology is a way that scientists are using artificial photosynthesis to create and utilise energy. Solar energy works by converting sunlight into electricity. It has become one of the cheapest forms of electricity. The only issue is that it requires a large amount of land to distribute the panels. For this reason people are deciding to put solar panels on buildings, cars, and other places that require energy.

Here you can find an interesting video explaining a brilliant project created by Jared Scott and Kelly Nyks. They have attempted to create the concept of the artificial leaf, and use this concept to generate large amounts of energy to power the world.

The beauty of solar energy, is that it can supply energy to isolated rural areas and villages in places like Africa, India, and rural China. This would have a significant positive impact on education, health, and communication technologies.

Another great simple video explaining the positive uses of solar energy is this one below. It clearly explains how it can be used and how amazing the sun’s energy is.
