Previously, sunlight’s role for humanity has generally been to participate in the photosynthesis of green plants, producing oxygen, and providing light to the Earth. Now, as humanity enters a new industrial revolution and possesses technology to harness solar energy, the utility of sunlight has become even more apparent:
Solar street lights, solar photovoltaic power generation, solar water heaters, solar vehicles, and many other applications utilize solar energy as their power source.
1.
Applying solar energy to street lights:
Solar LED street lights have been developed. The solar panel on a solar street light converts sunlight into electrical energy, which is stored in the light’s battery. At night, the battery releases the stored energy to provide illumination. One of the advantages of solar street lights is that each light is its own power generation system, generating and using power autonomously, without relying on the grid. Furthermore, the installation of solar LED street lights does not require trenching or wiring. The installation is straightforward, and solar street lights can be placed in well-lit areas, ensuring illumination wherever needed at night.
2.
Focusing sunlight on rooftops: Solar panels can be installed on residential rooftops to establish a small solar photovoltaic power station. The electrical lines can be connected to the household, providing electricity. In areas where the grid is accessible, electricity generated by the solar station can be sold to the grid; in areas where the grid cannot reach, the solar station provides electricity for household use. This two-way approach benefits everyone involved.
3.
Solar energy can also be utilized in water heaters, resulting in the production of solar water heaters. Sunlight transforms cold water into hot water through a heat collection pipe, supplying water for domestic use. This has significantly changed the way residents, especially in rural areas without gas supply, use hot water.
The advancement of technology aims to improve human life, and this green revolution initiated by solar energy brings tangible benefits to society, which all of us can witness.
