People used to look at Solar Energy as simply a curiosity, and would never stand by an energy source that would'nt generate energy instantly. With the stronghold that the oil industry had in the early to mid 19th century, solar energy, as a source of natural energy was seemingly a lost cause.
Today renewable energy accounts for more than 15% of global energy on demand. People are quickly realizing the potential renewable energy has to offer. Compared to the early 19th century the world's citizens also use a much larger energy consumption than ever now, which forces us to look in other places for energy. With the depletion of oil, and the dangers of Nuclear power, Solar Energy Systems are quickly becoming the only natural solution. |
