Solar power is earth’s most abundant energy source While solar energy seems to be a viable renewable energy option, there has been a lack of awareness amongst the general public which is slowing down the adoption of solar systems across different industries. Solar energy is the most abundantly available and accessible source of power that can be harnessed and used for power generation. Every hour 430 quintillion Joules of energy from the sun hits the Earth and the total energy used by humans all around the year is just 410 quintillion Joules. So, in a nutshell, the amount of sunlight that strikes the earth's surface in an hour is enough to handle the entire world's energy consumption for a year. Solar energy has zero pollution in electricity generation Solar power is an emission-free and sustainable energy source that has a very low carbon footprint. This enables solar power to be a very good alternative to conventional power generation methods. Solar energy systems increase the value of your home Solar energy system implementation is not only beneficial in generating power at the grid source and saving money in the long run but also in increasing the value of the home or the building.
