Understanding sunlight and solar energy -- An introduction to solar cell -- Photovoltaic systems -- Solar thermal collector technology -- Diverse applications of solar energy.
"The solar light and heat that is harnessed using photovoltaics, solar energy. It is a form of renewable energy. Solar technologies can be characterized into two categorized, namely active solar and passive solar. The former category involves the use of photovoltaic systems, solar water heating and concentrated solar power in order to harness solar energy. Passive solar technologies included building orientation towards the sun, designing spaces with proper air circulation, etc. Solar energy once harnessed, can be used for various purposes like water healing, cooking and water treatment, among many others. This book is compiled in such a manner, that will provide in -depth knowledge about the concepts and applications of solar energy and solar technologies. It explores all the important aspects of solar energy in the present day scenario. This textbook will serve as a valuable source of reference for those interested in this field."--Back cover
