Photovoltaic energy is a technology that help to transform solar light and rays into electricity. It was fiest discovered in 1839 year by a french scientist. He found out that when light direction was in one side of a simple battery, current may be increased. So in 1950s a space programm gave an intention to develop solar batteries. Today photovoltaic system are very important in usage of territories that are situated far away from electricity. They are actually used for lightning, water pumping out, like barrier for animals, telecommunications and much more.
Today photovoltaic energy becomes more popular with everyday all over the world. Photovoltaic systems nowadays become a main kind of producing electricity. Several millions of photovoltaic solar systems are use in the whole world, they have a magnificent power. Though is not used to the fullest and its potential is rather high than we know about. Solar photovoltaic energy is used more and more in houses and offices. So the preferable weather conditions for solar photovoltaic system to be placed are tropical countries.
China, India and many other developed countries are considered to be the main producers of solar photovoltaic systems. Solar photovoltaic energy and its system is widely spread in many spheres.It is used in usage of water and its system of cleaning, in the system of public health, communications, in transport services, in the security system and many different areas.
So for today solar photovoltaic energy and its systems are small and convenient in usage. They are used in places where there is no connection to the electricity.Solar photovoltaic energy systems may be also used in combination with another systems and technologies to increase and provide a new convenient complex or a system of far away energy usage.
For example an island Sagar that is situated in Ganga, India is working on a renewable sources of energy since 1996 year. Since this time there were built for more than 11 small solar photovolatic stations, so the energy is spread all over the villages and the citizens use the energy to the fullest as they can.
Renewable energy is already popular and becomes more popular with everyday, it replaces an ordinary natural sources of energy that will disappear forever one day. Its worth to think about the usage of the renewable energy and its further benefits. Our future will surely be connected with renewable energy and our mission is to try save our natural sources of energy at least for today.
