Created page with "Solar power uses the sun as an energy source. ==Types== * Photovoltaics (PV) (solar panels) - generate electricity * Solar thermal panels - use sunlight to directly heat air or water, without involving electricity * Concentrated solar - produce high heat by focusing enough sunlight into one area. The heat can be then used for generating electricity or for industrial processes. <!-- TALK: maybe also mention here: * combined photovoltaic+thermal panels..."
