The amount of energy that humans use each year can be supplied by the sun in just one hour. Most of the energy that we use, in one form or another, stems from solar energy. Through photosynthesis, plants convert solar energy into chemical energy which is then converted into fossil fuels and biomass. Energy from the sun is also partially responsible for creating both wind and thermal energy. However, due to the low energy density (the amount of energy per unit of area or volume) of solar power, directly harnessing sunlight as an energy source remains a challenge.
Solar power was not widely considered for use as a key energy source until the oil crisis of the 1970s, when oil prices doubled and threatened Western dependence on foreign oil. With oil prices once again on the rise and increasing concern over global warming, solar power is again emerging as a potential source of energy due to its abundant availability and lack of greenhouse gas emissions.
The Sun’s energy can be captured in a variety of ways, through either passive or active means. Passive solar heating is the simplest method by utilizing building materials and appropriate siting. Active solar systems, while currently only providing a small percentage of the world’s energy needs, collect the Sun’s energy with panels through which air or water is circulated to transfer the heat to a storage or utilization device. A variety of technologies utilizing solar energy have been developed, and are in use, including solar lighting and heating, concentrated solar power, and photovoltaics. – From http://www.enviroliteracy.org
