This chapter of the 'update' to Kent's 12th edition of the Mechanical Engineer's Handbook published in 1950 concerns solar energy and its applications. Sections cover: (1) energy availability; (2) collectors; (3) thermal applications; (4) nonthermal applications. (R.I.H.)...
energy in China: China plans to develop 75GW of hydropower, 30 GW of wind power, 30 GW of biomass and 1.8 GW of solar photovoltaic by 2020. In order to achieve this target, at least 267 Billion USD is needed to invest in the renewable energy sector in total. Investment in renewable ...
Note also that one of the most attractive applications of solar energy is heating of buildings but this is not needed in summer when solar energy is readily available. Of course, solar heat can be used for cooling applications by absorption cooling systems but they are complex devices involving ...

we can draw that current off to utilize remotely. The cells voltage defines the power that the solar cell can produce. The process of converting light into electricity is called the solar photovoltaic (SPV) effect. An array of solar panels converts solar energy into DC electricity. The DC el...
