As long as life exists on earth, the sun is known as the ultimate energy source provided by nature. Humans have used the sun for number of activities starting from fish, wheat and rice drying, sea-salt yield as far as drying of laundry.
The sun provides energy more than we demand. Currently, sun radiation is 10,000 times more than the world energy consumption.
The sun is Earth’s primary energy source and gives us the opportunity to use its energy indirectly through the absorption of water and wind energy, which we can call secondary energy sources.
From all known and accessible to humans energy sources the Sun is the most reliable energy source which will be available for another milliard of years.
Central Europe provides reliable solar capacity. To the best of our knowledge, surface of 145,000 sq.km. is required to satisfy world’s energy demand with photovoltaic power plant. For illustration purposes, this would look like a square with 380 km length on each side.
Solar energy is transformed into electricity through photovoltaic module or panel, which is composed of certain number of photovoltaic cells, which transform sun energy into electricity without any pollution.
The photovoltaic cell does not require recharge or refuel. The only requirement for its operation is sun radiation. As far as the photovoltaic cell is not broken or shattered, it can produce electricity for 25 years.
Nowadays it is common to see installed solar panels on buildings’ roofs, telephone booths and other.
As a conclusion we can comment that:
For the past decade the leading economies have concentrated science knowledge and capacity into finding methods to make the world "a better place"
World solar photovoltaic (PV) market installations reached a record high of 2,826MW in 2007, representing growth of 62% compared to previous year
Bulgaria’s potential for developing PV power plant is substantial due to the following main reasons:
southern geographical location
availability of plot of lands suitable for PV power plants
under-developed RES market especially in the PV sector
Our company advantage for preferable PV partner in Bulgaria:
skilled team of experts – engineers, PR, financial experts
access to favourable sites
established relations with state institutions and organisations
