HISTORY
Solar energy, close to what we know today,
emerged in 1954 by Russell Shoemaker Ohl,
together with the announcement of the first
photovoltaic cell during a meeting of the
National Academy of Sciences, after the
discovery of the photovoltaic effect and
starting the use of solar panels in 1958 .
AND
DISADVANTAGES
completely clean, sustainable and renewable
and does not emit any polluting gas into the
atmosphere. disadvantages are high initial
purchase cost, not running overnight on
systems without batteries; and few studies on
the impacts arising from the disposal of
panels.
IN THE WORLD
According to the most up-to-date data from the world's energy
entities, only 1% of the global energy matrix is ​provided by solar
sources. However, this index should increase in the coming years,
worldwide, due to the high investment in so-called green energies
and the concern with climate changes resulting from global
warming.
