ENERGIA SOLAR COMO FONTE DE ABASTECIMENTO DE ENERGIA ELÉTRICA

UMA ABORDAGEM ANALÍTICA

Abstract

The intensification of the consequences arising from the greenhouse effect, as well as the increase in population worldwide, has sparked the search for more promising ways of using energy, in a sustainable and renewable way, without harming the environment. In this sense, solar energy is an alternative, which, through photovoltaic equipment, converts the radiation emitted by the Sun into electrical energy, becoming a trend in meeting the demands of the current scenario, with savings of up to 95% in electricity tariffs. lighting for over 25 years. Given this scenario, this study aims to discuss the implementation of solar energy as a solution for the supply of electrical energy, through a bibliographical review of a qualitative and exploratory nature, which allows us to understand the main challenges of this alternative in terms of implementation and current efficiency, as well as advantages, disadvantages, adherence rates and the use of public policies. The results describe the use of solar energy, as an advantageous proposal throughout the territory, even in regions less favored by solar irradiation, given that through the installation of solar panels and other equipment that form the so-called photovoltaic systems, consumers are able to generate electricity in a innovative and environmentally friendly.
