AEMO reinforces role of rooftop solar in energy transition
The Australian Energy Market Operator''s latest Integrated System Plan has stamped the role rooftop solar will play in the nation''s energy transition, revealing that the total capacity of rooftop PV and other distributed solar in the nation''s main grid is forecast to rise from 21 GW to 86 GW by 2050.
Solar power 101: What is solar energy? | EnergySage
Solar energy is energy from the sun that we capture with various technologies, including solar panels. There are two main types of solar energy: photovoltaic (solar panels) and thermal. The "photovoltaic effect" is the mechanism by which solar panels harness the sun
