PHOTOVOLTAIC ENERGY
In the energy transformation process, industrial companies (the greatest energy
consumers) have for many years now, been experimenting with ways of saving energy
and lowering pollutant emissions through the prudent and rational consumption of
known resources, and have been searching for new forms of clean and inexhaustible
energy.
Renewable energy sources provide a fundamental contribution to solving the problem.
In this context, the exploitation of solar energy to generate electrical energy
(photovoltaic) is becoming increasingly more important across the world.
Photovoltaic energy is a great advantage in terms of environmental protection as the
solar radiation that we receive from the sun is directly transferred into electrical energy
without involving any form of combustion and without producing waste products
which would pollute the environment.
