What is solar energy?
Detailed Explanation
Solar Energy is energy that comes from the sun. Solar energy also doesn't produce greenhouse gasses. Greenhouse gasses are supposedly causing global warming even if it isn't real. Solar energy keeps the ocean from freezing and pushes the currents. Solar energy also helps plants with photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is when a plant makes food for itself using the sunlight its leaves collect. Without the energy of the sun we would be on a very cold planet. There would be no living thing on what we call today Earth. We would all die, and that would suck a lot.
One good example of California Mojave Desert can explain the method of how solar energy can be used in creating electricity. in the solar power plant, one big curved mirror is used of which the central point is running pipeline. the central point of the mirror focuses on the pipeline so that the heat it receives heats the pipe as well, this pipe gets so hot that can turn water into steam and the steam can be used in moving turbine to create electricity. the solar power plants use a lot of mirrors above the pipelines to get heat and then create electricity. but these solar power plants are partially useless since they only make electricity in the daytime and night they are not capable to create electricity.
