Passive Solar Heating Large south-facing windows, heavy drapes to trap heat at night, interior bricks to trap heat Large south-facing windows, heavy drapes to trap heat at night, interior bricks to trap heat Shade windows in summer Shade windows in summer Even though back up systems are required, and solar heating may only lessen the need for heating oil a few %, it will help us adapt to diminishing oil supplies. Even though back up systems are required, and solar heating may only lessen the need for heating oil a few %, it will help us adapt to diminishing oil supplies.

Photovoltaics Active solar energy Active solar energy Photovoltaic (PV) panels can be used to convert the energy from the sun into electricty. Photovoltaic (PV) panels can be used to convert the energy from the sun into electricty. “Every hour enough solar energy reaches the Earth to meet the world's energy demand for a whole year."
