How does renewable green energy work?
The heat from the sun can be used to heat water or air for residential, commercial and industrial use. Sunlight also provides heating and can be converted to electricity using photovoltaic (solar electric) panels. This electricity can be used to operate a multitude of electrical appliances. The sun’s energy (light, heat, ultraviolet) can also be converted into heat using solar thermal (heating) panels. Wind and flowing water is also another way that can be used to generate electricity.
