1. Solar energy systems are the systems that use solar energy as a thermal source or generate electricity directly. Solar energy systems which use solar energy to generate electricity use the photovoltaic effect. Antoine-César and Alexandre-Edmond Becquerel have first observed the photovoltaic effect in year 1839.

atoms. The sun makes energy in its inner core in a process. called nuclear fusion. During nuclear fusion, the high pressure and temperature. in the sun''s core cause hydrogen (H) atoms to come apart. Four hydrogen nuclei (the centers of the atoms) combine, or fuse, to form one helium atom. During the fusion.

amount of energy relative to global needs. • Those pro, contend: Solar energy is abundant, in exhaustible, clean, and cheap. • Those can, claim: Solar energy is tenuous, un-dependable, and expensive beyond practicality. There is some truth to both of these views. The sun''s energy, for all practical purposes, is certainly in exhaustible.
