picture info	Solar Power Solar power, also known as solar electricity, is the conversion of energy from sunlight into electricity, either directly using photovoltaics (PV) or indirectly using concentrated solar power. Solar panels use the photovoltaic effect to convert light into an electric current. Concentrated solar power systems use lenses or mirrors and solar tracking systems to focus a large area of sunlight to a hot spot, often to drive a steam turbine. Photovoltaics (PV) were initially solely used as a source of electricity for small and medium-sized applications, from the calculator powered by a single solar cell to remote homes powered by an off-grid rooftop PV system. Commercial concentrated solar power plants were first developed in the 1980s. Since then, as the cost of solar panels has fallen, grid-connected solar PV systems' capacity and production has doubled about every three years. Three-quarters of new generation capacity is solar, with both millions of rooftop installatio ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
picture info	Solar Power (album) ''Solar Power'' is the third studio album by New Zealand singer-songwriter Lorde. It was released on 20 August 2021, by Universal. Inspired by the death of her retriever mix dog Pearl and visit to Antarctica in 2019, the album was written with producer Jack Antonoff to capture solipsism and summer escapism, mainly focused on Lorde's leisure time in her homeland New Zealand, simultaneously expressing her disdain for fame and celebrity culture. Classified by Lorde as her "weed album", ''Solar Power'' is a psychedelic pop and indie folk effort built around acoustic guitar arrangements, marking a departure from the electronic-based music of her previous works. It was met by polarised reviews from music critics, who commended Lorde's matured vocals, but were divided over its songwriting and production. Lorde later described the response to the record as "really confounding", and "painful". The album was led by its lead single and title track, "Solar Power", followed by " Stoned at ...
