Abstract
SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.
Abstract
Today, the main driver of socioeconomic development is energy. However,
the interest in renewable energy is important because of the increasing level of
environmental concern. Due to the ongoing depletion of fossil fuels, this alternative
energy source is steadily growing in popularity. It is the energy that is derived from the
sun, wind, rain, etc. Solar energy has one of the greatest potentialities for conversion
into electric power among unconventional, renewable energy sources. To improve
efficiency, a solar system should produce as much electricity as possible. So we keep
the solar panels aligned with the sun for optimum power production. This chapter
discusses the production of electricity from solar energy. By appropriately positioning
the panel in line with the position of the sun, the suggested method assures the
maximum efficiency of the conversion of solar energy into electricity.
