History of the Solar Panel
Did You Know:
The history of Solar Panels dated back to 1829.
A French scientist named Antoine-Cesar Becquerel discovered the photovoltaic effect. The discovery evolved during an experiment, a electrolytic cell was made from two metal electrodes and were placed into a electrolyte solution.
Becquerel discovered that when the cells were exposed to light it produced a certain amount of electricity, the more light there was the more output of electricity.
To our satisfaction that was when Solar Panels were invented.
Thank You- Antoine-Cesar Becquerel
About Green Technologies
Green technologies and building green is the future!
Green Technology and the ideas of building green is not going away, it is only the start. It is the new future that we can get used to, and think about how these new ideas are going to help our children and future generations.
It’s Good for the environment!
It’s Good for the economies!
I see thousands of new jobs to be created. I see new businesses starting up all over the country-which means all kinds of new jobs.
As technology advances, there will be millions of new ideas to advance on, Solar Power, Wind Turbines, Generators, Batteries. Would it not be Great and fulfilling to create energy without pollution.
My Friends, these ideas could make us very happy!
Solar Garden Lights
In less than 5 years, the technology of solar cells and batteries has improved by leaps and bounds. Older solar garden lights had a poor reputation for emitting only a small amount of light for a short period of time. This, however, is no longer true.
That’s not to say that solar garden lighting is perfect. However, today’s version of solar garden lights is far superior to the first generation of solar landscape lighting. Keep in mind that solar lighting is the next best thing to a low-voltage outdoor lighting system, which is expensive to install and maintain.
Teaching Kids about Energy Savings
While it’s not reasonable to expect that children understand every aspect of household finance, it doesn’t hurt to give them a head start. By teaching your kids to live within their means, you greatly improve their chances of avoiding a pit of debt later in life. I began the process by explaining the details of the heating and electric bills to my kids. Then we sat down and came up with strategies for reducing the monthly costs.
My son struck upon a novel idea that never would have occurred to me: we could pursue solar energy to supplement our household heating and electrical. I found a book online explaining how to build DIY solar panels in great detail. It turns out that most of the materials necessary for the task are widely available and inexpensive to boot. Somehow my attempt to teach the kids about budgeting transformed into a bonding experience.
