This presentation discusses solar energy, including that it is energy provided by the sun in the form of solar radiation, which can be used to generate electricity, heat water, power satellites, and more. Some key uses of solar energy covered are generating electrical energy through solar panels, heating water, and using solar dryers to dry agricultural crops, food, fish, meat, and wood. The advantages mentioned are that solar energy is renewable, non-polluting, requires little maintenance, and can be stored or sold as electricity. Disadvantages include the initial cost of solar panels and the inability to generate power at night or through cloud cover.
