Solar Energy
January 2024 – Solar Energy is a form of electromagnetic radiation emitted by the sun. Solar energy technologies convert sunlight into electricity and heat. There are two types of solar technologies: Photovoltaics (PV) and Concentrated Solar Power (CSP). The use of clean, renewable energy sources. It has grown due to several factors such as concerns about the environmental impacts of conventional fossil fuel sources and the associated carbon emissions, as well as the decreasing cost of solar energy technologies. The Paris Agreement aims to reduce the global temperature rise below 2°C by 2050, requiring a clean energy transition and supporting sustainable development goals.
In this slideshow, you will learn about the definition, advantages, challenges, UN policy, and global statistics of solar energy utilization. Discover how solar technologies can reduce global carbon emissions, accelerate the clean energy transition, and meet net zero emission goals by 2050.
