Solar Energy is the cleanest and greenest source of renewable energy available to help power of our home, business and community building and now a day the cheapest too! Solar power industry is currently one of the fastest developing industries around the globe. The investment in different solar power technologies grows rapidly not only in developed but also in developing world because of many different factors. Solar power is generated when energy from sun (sunlight) is converted into electricity or used to heat air, water or other fluids. Using the Sun as a renewable source of energy can help us reduce our electricity bills and carbon footprint. Solar energy is available throughout the world and can contribute to reduced dependence on energy imports. Australia experience more solar radiation per square kilometre on average than anywhere else in the world. Solar power is clean. Solar power systems generate more energy than is required to produce them and hence allowing us to go on and produce pollution-free electricity for many years. …show more content…
According to the International Energy Agency, Perth – which receives an average of 8.8 hours of sunshine a day – has the best solar resources of cities in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), and the greatest potential to use solar power systems for reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
For Perth households and small business –the electricity bill has increased for around 45 per cent in the last few years and can expect further price hikes in near future, solar power has become very popular in Perth. The advantages of solar power in Perth are many; in addition to cutting power bills and future price increases, using solar power in home or business will allow us to reduce the carbon footprint and help us lead the way to a more sustainable
