SOLAR PANELS - Coggle Diagram
Positive Aspect
The solar pannel have much positive effect for environment, economy and energy: we can resume the "pro" in 3 points for argument:
-

-
point a view:
I agree about the innovation of the solar panels because they exploit the energy of the sun so at least it can be renewed. Furthermore, thanks to these panels we can save money because we will reduce the electricity bills.
-
Solar panels, also known as photovoltaic (PV) panels, are devices that convert sunlight directly into electricity. They are made up of many solar cells, usually made from silicon, that absorb sunlight and generate direct current (DC) electricity through the photovoltaic effect.
Homes and buildings: Roof-mounted panels supply electricity, reduce bills, and sometimes provide power during outages with battery storage.
-
Portable devices: Some panels are used for camping, RVs, or even phone chargers.
-
Remote locations: Powering satellites, remote sensors, or rural areas without access to the grid.
-
In sunny regions, solar panels are most efficient.
-
Year-round, though they produce more in summer.
negative aspect
Polluting production: Requires energy and harmful chemicals.
Difficult disposal: Recycling is challenging; risk of electronic waste.
Intermittent energy: No production at night or in low sunlight; expensive batteries needed.
High initial cost: Installation and equipment can be expensive.
Environmental impact: Large solar farms take up space and may harm natural habitats.
Aesthetic and practical limits: Not suitable for all roofs and sometimes considered unattractive.
Efficiency loss: Performance decreases over time.
