摘要: The world benefits greatly from fossil fuel resources with more than 80% of world's energy demand coming fuels. Proven coal reserves are sufficient for the next 113 years, while natural gas reserve could last up to 55 years. However, given finite life these and need reduce emissions alternative such as solar, biomass, hydro wind suggested they clean, abundant effectively infinite. Solar PV is best known a method generating electric power by using solar cells convert sun into flow electrons.
