This model presents significantly lower pollution risks to the environment compared to traditional energy sources.
Conversion of sunlight into electricity, either using photovoltaic (PV), or indirectly using concentrated solar power (CSP).
The type of solar system permanently connected to an electrical power grid, allows the home to use energy when available.
Homes can be powered by solar cells that directly convert solar energy (sunlight) into electricity, which is then stored in batteries.
Active solar technologies enhance energy supply and are categorized as supply-side technologies. In contrast, passive solar technologies decrease the reliance on alternative resources and are typically seen as demand-side technologies.
