Solar power, also known as solar electricity, is the conversion of energy from sunlight into electricity, either directly using photovoltaics (PV) or indirectly using concentrated solar power. Geography affects solar energy potential because some places are sunnier than others. In particular areas that are closer to the Early daysThe early development of solar technologies starting in the 1860s was driven by an expectation that coal would soon become scarce, such as experiments by.
