- Solar energy technologies use sunlight to produce heat and electricity. Electricity produced by solar energy through photovoltaic technologies can be used in conventional electric vehicles. Using solar energy directly to power vehicles has been investigated primarily for competition and demonstration vehicles. Solar vehicles are not available to the general public, and are not currently being considered by OEMs for production. However, solar vehicles have been developed and used in several competitions including the American Solar Challenge and the World Solar Challenge.
- Solar energy is derived from the sun. In order to collect this energy and use it to fuel a vehicle, photovoltaic cells are used. For more information on photovoltaics or solar technologies, go to the Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) Web site.

- back to homepage Solar energy is one the most resourceful sources of energy for the future. One of the reasons for this is that the total energy we recieve each year from the sun is around 35,000 times the total energy used by man. However, about 1/3 of this energy is either absorbed by the outer atmosphere or reflected back into space (a proccess called albedo)1. Solar energy is presently being used on a smaller scale in furnaces for homes and to heat up swimming pools. On a larger scale use, solar energy could be used to run cars, power plants, and space ships (like the picture you see above).

- After the 1973 oil embargo, there was a resurgence of interest in solar energy. Faced with a possibility of scarce oil resources, the United States government allocated $400 million per year, from a mere $1 million per year, for solar energy research. ... Currently, there is a need for allocating increased resources in solar research. Compared to the old forms of depletable energy (coal, oil, nuclear), solar energy offers a clean renewable form of energy. This presentation will provide an overview of the past, present and future of solar energy. ...

- Solar Energy.
- Solar power may be the energy of the twenty-first century. At the present time solar power is quite limited. Solar power can be broken down into two categories: .
- Passive solar .
- Active Solar .
- Passive Solar .
- Passive solar energy is making direct or indirect use of the thermal energy from the sun. ... Architects can take advantage of that fact when they build structures where the windows utilize the sun's thermal energy during the winter. ... Special thermal solar collectors can circulate water through the collection unit that collects the sun's thermal energy for the purpose of heating the water for use. More expensive units can use the thermal energy of the sun in a heat exchange pump for the air conditioning of small buildings. These thermal solar collectors have been coming down in expense but are limited by the geographical setting where the sun's energy is at its maximum. ...
- Active Solar .
- Active solar energy is the direct use of the sun's electromagnetic radiation in generating electrical energy. Technically, this is accomplished by the use of semi-conductor Silicon Boron solar chips. The problem with these solar chips is that they have a low efficiency ratio and can only be used in supplying the energy needs of small devices like calculators, watches, radios, or as a limited power source in satellite systems. However the present technology does not allow the use of these solar chips to supply the power needs for whole communities. Perhaps in time, autos will be supplied electrical energy by solar conversion. Active solar power could be a power source for the near future. ...

- On the earth surface the solar constant measures the power received from the sun by a 1 m2 surface perpendicular to the sun's rays. ... Practically, in order to estimate the energy available at a specified location, one has to take into account the latitude, the average daily and yearly insolation. ... Taking, as an example, an insolation of 1800 KWh/m2 and an efficiency for transformation of the solar energy into electricity of 15%, one gets an electricity production of 270 KWh/m2, a number approximately valid for photovoltaïc as well as thermodynamical systems. ... At current costs of solar cells, such a facility would cost around 17 billion $, more than a factor 10 larger than for a nuclear plant of similar power. ... Note, however, that the necessity to store the energy would increase its cost by a factor 2. Thermodynamic systems allow much lower costs down to 12 cents/ KWh and may become competitive for significant energy production in such places as Africa, India and South America, provided the current output of the facility can be fed into a network able to cope with the essentially intermittent form of the solar energy. One should note, in this context, that day-night storage capacities are present in all thermal solar systems, in the form of oil, sodium or molten salts heat storage reservoirs. ...
