A new report indicates industrial solar and renewable energy projects can boost local economies, but need a buyer for electricity.
Solar energy is radiation from the Sun that is capable of producing heat, causing chemical reactions, or generating electricity. The total amount of solar energy incident on Earth is vastly in excess of the world’s energy requirements and could satisfy all future energy needs if suitably harnessed.

Learn the basics of solar energy technology including solar radiation, photovoltaics (PV), concentrating solar-thermal power (CSP), grid integration, and soft costs.
Solar technologies are categorized as either passive or active depending on the way they capture, convert and distribute sunlight and enable solar energy to be harnessed at different levels around the world, mostly depending on the distance from the Equator.
