Solar electricity

A clean, powerful energy source, right above our heads. It's power that is harnessed from sunlight in the form of radiant energy and converted into electricity. Solar electricity is a renewable energy source-it won't run out for at least a few million years-and it can power everything and anything electric. The more electricity we get from the sun, the less that must be generated by burning fossil fuels.
