What is solar technology?

Solar technology entails all procedures and devices set to collect energy from the sun and convert it to electricity or heat energy suitable for human application. This comprises solar energy systems such as photovoltaic (PV) systems, solar thermal systems, and concentrated solar power (CSP) among other systems.

Should solar energy be combined with storage technologies?

Coupling solar energy and storage technologies is one such case. The reason: Solar energy is not always produced at the time energy is needed most. Peak power usage often occurs on summer afternoons and evenings, when solar energy generation is falling.

Can solar energy be used as a energy storage system?

Existing compressed air energy storage systems often use the released air as part of a natural gas power cycle to produce electricity. Solar power can be used to create new fuels that can be combusted (burned) or consumed to provide energy, effectively storing the solar energy in the chemical bonds.
