Solar energy
At present, most of our electricity comes from the use of coal, gas, oil or nuclear power.
This power could be provided by the sun. One percent of the solar energy that reaches the earth
is enough to provide power for the total population. Many countries are already using solar energy.
Solar panels are placed on the roof of a house and the sun’s energy is used to heat water. The energy
can be stored for a number of days, so on cloudy days you can use solar energy, too.
Sweden has an advanced solar energy program. There, all building will be heated by solar energy
and cars will use solar power instead of gas by the year 2015.
1. Solar energy is being used only in some countries.
2. People use solar energy to make water hot.
