Hello,What do you all think about the future of solar panels and what role they will play in the near future. There is tons of money being dumped into the industry and demand is slowly rising. Also do you have any favorite solar links to get more info about them?
Solar Panel really isn't any new technology, it was discovered in the early 60s. And as you can see it hasn't progressed all that much. But Developers are saying that within the next five years solar technology will increase dramatically. With more and more people looking for greener and easier forms of energy, there are many looking towards solar. In fact some energy companies are willing to buy the energy that you produce from you. And with new forms of thinner silicon panels, we are looking at a more efficient kind of panels. Unfortunately for us, at the moment thin-film panel silicon isn't as efficient as we are looking for. They are flimsier than the traditional panels and do not contain as much silicon to produce the electricity. But as soon as the demand increases, the production will increase, and if more companies are looking to invest in solar, then there will be more competition, with more competition- we are going to have improved technology, and with more improved technology, the prices will go down. Because at the moment, there is not much of an incentive for solar power. Compared to the Kilowatt- hour produced from coal and other forms of energy, solar does not produce as much. Experts are saying that within the next five years, not having solar panels on your house will be as silly as building a house without plumbing. The future on solar panels looks bright.
Well I think solar technology is a viable solution to our energy problem. The only issue is that right now it takes too long for the panels to pay off unless you have a fairly big facility to power. Solar panels are getting cheaper and cheaper though, soon they will pay themselves off in less than ten years and I think then you will see more people buy them which will bring the price down even more. Solar done on a large scale is something that needs to be invested in ASAP. They can create jobs, power our nation and slow down global climate change.
I think the solar panel will be better as the development of technology. A solar panel company called OKorder once did a research of the future of solar panels and gave many datas to prove the bright future of it. Find it on Internet.
Well, it's true that solar panels aren't exactly the new invention. However, solar technologies keep improving all the time. Just like computers used to be super rare and hard to get, but right now almost everyone has a PC or a laptop. Same with solar panels, soon they will get a lot more popular. Even people like Bill Gates are interested in solar solutions, here, take a look:
