The sun’s rays generates massive amounts of energy which are transmitted down to the earth’s surface. Whenever the sun’s light reach the earth’s surface the intensity of the heat directly from the sun’s rays is not as hot because some of the heat happens to be rerouted before it reaches the earth’s atmosphere. When the direct sun light is hot …

The sun generates enormous amounts of heat that are transmitted down to the earth’s surface. When the sun’s rays reach the earth’s surface the intensity of the heat directly from the sun’s rays is not as hot basically because some of the heat happens to be rerouted right before it actually reaches the earth’s atmosphere.

GOING SOLAR PROGRAM Thanks To The New American Vision Solar™ Power Purchase Agreement Solar panels create a ‘green’, pollution-free source for heat, light and electricity. The technology has been around for a while, in fact, because satellites utilize solar panels, we already rely on solar power for many of the gadgets we use everyday from cell phones to GPS systems …

With a series of intensive solar projects under way, as much as 7.5GW in PV capacity could be added to the local power grid by 2015, more than half the state’s announced goal of achieving 12GW from all renewable sources—and with five more years to spare before the targeted 2020 deadline. What this shows is the likelihood of PV accounting in the future for a great portion of clean energy in California, Sheppard noted.
