  • Essay / Advantages and Disadvantages of Solar Cars - 941

    Introduction: Nowadays, renewable energy is used in many forms. It comes in various forms of energy like solar energy, wind energy and hydropower. Solar energy is one of the best of these energies, so we can benefit from it in many ways and for many purposes, such as in the case of solar cars. Currently, solar cars are available in many countries. Since then, they have many advantages and benefits. Therefore, in this essay, I will talk about the solar car, its components, its advantages and disadvantages and the development of solar cars. The solar car and its components Solar cars are vehicles used for land transportation. It is an electric vehicle powered by solar energy obtained from solar panels. It consists of solar cells, a battery and its body. Solar Energy Solar energy is the source that the solar car depends on for its energy, like any other solar-powered device. In fact, we cannot directly benefit from solar panels, but we use solar panels or photovoltaic panels, which are made of hundreds or thousands of carefully arranged solar cells. These panels capture sunlight and then convert it into electrical energy. The solar cell is made of semiconductor materials such as silicon and alloys of indium, gallium and nitrogen. Its efficiency can reach 20%. This percentage is converted into electrical energy from the total solar energy falling on the panels. Electric current is generated during energy movement between layers of solar cells. Batteries When the solar car is moving, electric current is directly transferred to the electric motor. But, if the car is turned off, then this electric current recharges the battery. Where, we can benefit from the energy that was charged in the bat...... middle of paper ......References about my plant. (February 17, 2009).
