Solar Energy by Lelya Powell
Solar Energy
The next type of energy I will talk about is solar energy. Solar energy comes from the star in the middle of our solar system the Sun. It is a source of renewable energy and it’s when the photons and particles of light from the sun shine on solar panels and that moves electrons on their atoms to make energy whether that be light or heat energy. The term photovoltaic means to turn sunlight into energy and that is basically what happens with solar energy. One bad thing about solar panels is the waste, so solar panels actually contain some toxic chemicals like lead and those chemicals leak into the air. It’s also hard to recycle and get rid of bad solar panels, but solar panels can last 10-25 years before they go bad or break and maybe even longer if they are taken care of.
I loved how informative your blog is with also being very to the point. I had no idea as to how solar panels worked but you explained it very well in this blog, also I didn't know that solar panels had waste to them so that was also really neat to learn about.
ReplyDeleteYou see solar panels everywhere now. I had never researched how they really worked, just heard all the benefits from using them. Your post was very interesting and informational.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed reading your post! Your post was very informative. I have always wondered how solor panels worked and you had a great description!
ReplyDeleteI think that you touched on a lot of very intelligent remarks involving solar panels and I was glad to have taken the time to read it.
