Our lives are strongly connected to electric power. There are various ways to generate electricity, which can be broadly classified into two categories: fossil fuel-based energy and clean energy that utilizes nature. Among clean energy sources, solar power is the cleanest energy source on the planet today. Today, when it is difficult to live without electricity, solar power generation, which does not emit greenhouse gases, is attracting a great deal of attention.
Energy commonly used in our daily life
The electricity most commonly used today is generated by so-called “fossil fuels. As industry has evolved, the consumption of fuels has increased, bringing into sharp relief the problems of depletion of limited fossil fuels and environmental destruction.
When fossil fuels are used, “greenhouse gases” are emitted. This is the primary cause of “global warming,” which we often hear about. There are concerns that global warming will cause the temperature of the entire planet to rise, resulting in abnormal weather, rising sea levels, and impacts on ecosystems and other factors.
This is why “clean energy” is attracting attention. Clean energy refers to energy that does not emit (or has reduced emissions of) greenhouse gases. The time has already come when we must generate power without relying on fossil fuels.
What can we do to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels?
The most efficient way to reduce dependence on fossil fuels is to use the clean energy of sunlight. However, solar power can only be generated while the sun is shining. Therefore, a power source that can store energy is needed. With solar panels and energy storage power sources, we can make clean energy more accessible and achieve our goals of saving energy and reducing greenhouse gas emissions at the same time. The power source using safe and secure lithium-ion iron phosphate batteries and solar panels with high power generation efficiency will make the future we imagine brighter. We must start now to do what we can do for the future and for the earth.
