Hello, everyone.
I welcome you to my blog. Since time immemorial, man has been on a quest to secure for himself the best way to live life and make life easy. We have gone from one energy source to another, and we are still searching. One of the most predominantly used source of energy is the fossil fuels (includes coal, petroleum, heavy oil e.t.c) which has caused more harm than good to the environment because of how much carbon emissions hit the environment and atmosphere when this energy source is In use, this energy source, both when in use and when digging, affects the environment negatively and in ways we cannot imagine.
The quality of life in a country or area is believed to be directly proportional to the amount of energy consumed by that area or country; this simply means that if less energy is being consumed in a given area, the quality of life there is less. The amount of energy consumed in a given country can also be used to determine if a country falls under the category of developing countries or developed countries; the availability of energy determines how comfortable we live, and the lack of energy can be disastrous and hinder development and growth.
Solar energy has proven to be the best energy source; it is a renewable source of energy that is obtained from the sun (sun radiation). An energy source is said to be renewable if the consumption rate is lower or less than the production rate. A renewable energy source is one that replenishes fast, and a typical example of such energy is the sun energy. The energy of the sun reaching the surface of the earth is more than we can even imagine; it is more than enough to go round.
Many other energy sources do not replenish fast; that is to say, their consumption rate is higher compared to their production rate, which means they can get exhausted at any time and without any warnings, for example fossil fuels. It takes a lot of time before crude manages to replenish, which is almost the same thing as removal without replacement, which makes relying on or depending on such an energy source very risky.
It is evenly distributed: The energy of the sun is not rationalized in any way, unlike our electrical energy, where the rich or people living in exotic areas within the same region get to enjoy more power supply than others, as long as it is the same region; the amount of sun energy reaching the house of the rich is the same as the amount reaching the house of the poor, with no discrimination.
No pollution or carbon emissions: Solar energy is one of the few energy sources that does not have a negative effect on the environment; the use of solar energy makes the environment safe and conducive compared to using other sources of energy.
Abundant supply and easily accessible: Like I said earlier, the amount of solar energy reaching the earth's surface is more than we can actually imagine, which makes it abundant and easily accessible, as you do not have to travel to a particular region or area before you can gain access to this energy; you can access the energy from anywhere, whether in a rural or urban area.
