REVIEW Twister With A Twist!

THE SUN

Sun Affects Many Things Wind (heating of land) Water (water cycle) Biomass (growth of plants, decomposition) We feel and use many things that the sun has touched, BUT can we use it directly?

Solar Energy (Hawewe Ikehu)

Sun Details Energy is in sun’s rays (solar radiation) Solar radiation gives thermal energy

Photovoltaic Renewable Energy

Photovoltaic – Changes light into electricity Photo..WHAT?? Photo -- light Voltaic -- voltage Photovoltaic – Changes light into electricity

Photovoltaic Panel Changes sunlight into electricity Called a Solar Cell or PV Each cell made from materials like those in a computer chip How cells works

Demo – Solar Cells/Panels Pass out solar cells Pass out mini solar panels to show cells connected

What are the Good & Bad things about Solar?

GOOD BAD Solar energy is free and unlimited Basically no impact to environment PV arrays are easily installed BAD No generators for PV No water pollution Sun doesn’t always shine PV only 10% efficient as of 2007, so need lots of panels No air pollution Manufacturing cells uses up silicon and makes some waste products. Need converters and storage system for home use.
