Solar energy
Solar energy is energy that comes from the rays of the sun (direct or indirect sunlight). On our planet, solar energy produces the water cycle and the wind. Green plants use solar energy, converting it into chemical energy via the process of photosynthesis. By means of various different processes, it is possible to convert solar energy into other types of energy: electricity via photovoltaic solar energy and heat thanks to the sun’s thermal energy.
