ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF TECHNOLOGIES SOLAR POWER PLANT AND WIND POWER PLANT.

The use of solar and wind energy contributes to an increase in the share of inexhaustible energy sources to cover the energy needs of the world. More than 100 countries have already formulated policy goals for expanding the use of renewable energy sources and have introduced corresponding energy programs that oblige grid operators to buy electricity produced by renewable energy sources. According to scientists, the age of the Sun is about 4.5 billion years and, according to the classification of stars, it can remain unchanged for another 5 billion years. Its energy potential is so huge. If we compare the radiation power of one square meter of the solar surface, then the closest analogy is the amount of current consumed by a million classic filament lamps. Therefore, the energy of the Sun can become an inexhaustible stream, which in terms of power many times exceeds the entire volume of electricity generated throughout the world. It remains to find the most efficient and cost-effective way to use this resource.
