Will solar power find its place in the sun
- Abstract:
- For more than a century, solar power has faced the problem highlighted above – that despite the almost universal availability of solar power, the cost of transforming it into useful energy has prevented it from playing any significant part in the world's energy supplies. The purpose of this article is to explore whether this might now be changing – could solar power be the energy of the future, or at least a significant component of future energy systems?
