Summary

Along with geothermal energy, solar energy is now one of the least environmentally disruptive sources of power by which electricity is generated today. Sunlight is a free, unlimited resource that hits the Earth with more energy in an hour than the people of the world use in a year. In Solar Power, New Edition, readers will discover how scientists are trying to harness this power and explore potential developments into the future. Vivid full-color photographs and illustrations bring the topic to life, and this eBook's handy features include a glossary and a list for further reading, making it valuable for research.
