PHOTOVOLTAIC ENERGY
Industrialized countries (greater energy consumers) have been experimenting energy-
saving methods and reduced pollutant levels for many years thanks to the energy-
conversion process. This may be possible through a shrewd and rational consumption
of well-known resources, and also by looking for new forms of clean and not
exhaustible energy.
Regenerating sources of energy are fundamental to solve this problem. Under these
circumstances, solar energy exploitation to generate electrical (photovoltaic) energy is
becoming more and more important world-wide.
Photovoltaic energy, in any case, is of great advantage to the environment because the
radiated energy we receive from the sun is transformed directly into electrical energy
without any combustion process and without producing any pollution.
