People have used solar energy for billions of years with some people doing it even without their knowledge. One of the initial incidences when solar power was used was back in the 1800′s when explorers collected heat from the rays of the sun using a box and used it to cook. Solar power mainly involves collecting light and heat from the sun rays and using it both in homes and in offices for very many uses. According to studies, a very tiny portion of the heat from the sun is actually being converted into energy. This has been blamed on lack of technology to collect the energy in certain countries although other people in developed countries simply do not feel the need to harness energy from the sun when they have many other sources of energy.
