Solar Energy

1. How many main types of clouds are there?
  R= two, direct irradiance and diffuse irradiance. 

2. Can clouds increase solar irradiance reaching a photovoltaic?
  R= no


3. Do solar towers that produce energy from the sun work at night?
  R= not, keep it, and when necessary use it

4. Which of the three (or combination of) types of solar irradiance do photovoltaics use?
 R= all three


5. Which one the countries below has the highest solar irradiance potential?
  R= UK



6. Is solar energy the solution?
  R= if, some disadvanteges.


7. Should more focus be given to better and cheaper batteries to store energy for household use?
  R= if so economical


8. If satellite imaging was open-data, and anyone could access it, would that increase the use of solar energy systems?
  R= maybe 


9. How would the world, as we know it, change, if free energy was available for all?
  R= without so many diseases and more nature.





INTELLIGENT SOLAR OVEN

Eradicate extreme poverty and hunger is the impact we expect from this project which will be presented to the institutions, in every place, the solar oven has to have a big impact on the economic and versatile it is. And it is also modern and interesting.

Applications of intelligent solar furnace depends on the user's needs, but its function is to cook food, and care for the ecology of the planet as it is a safe and healthy way, so make sure it will make a big impact on people.
