La radiaci\u00f3n solar tambi\u00e9n se conoce como radiaci\u00f3n electromagn\u00e9tica, que es emitida por el sol. Todos los lugares de la tierra reciben luz solar durante el a\u00f1o, pero la cantidad de radiaci\u00f3n solar que llega a todos los puntos de la superficie del planeta var\u00eda. Entonces, lo que hacen las tecnolog\u00edas solares es capturar esta radiaci\u00f3n y convertirla en formas \u00fatiles de energ\u00eda y puede usarse para alimentar un hogar o tambi\u00e9n puede almacenarse en bater\u00edas o almacenamiento t\u00e9rmico.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Como ya vieron, hasta el momento, existen dos tipos de tecnolog\u00edas de energ\u00eda solar. Se trata de energ\u00eda fotovoltaica (PV) y energ\u00eda solar t\u00e9rmica de concentraci\u00f3n (conocida por sus siglas en ingl\u00e9s como CSP).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Paneles Fotovoltaicos (PV)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>La mayor\u00eda de la gente est\u00e1 familiarizada con la energ\u00eda fotovoltaica, ya que es la tecnolog\u00eda utilizada en los paneles solares para generar electricidad. B\u00e1sicamente, cuando el sol entra en un sistema de paneles solares, las c\u00e9lulas fotovoltaicas de cada panel absorben la energ\u00eda de la luz solar. Luego, esta energ\u00eda genera cargas el\u00e9ctricas que se mueven en respuesta a un campo interno en la celda, lo que hace que fluya la electricidad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Energ\u00eda Termosolar (CSP)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Esta tecnolog\u00eda solar utiliza espejos para reflejar y concentrar la luz solar con el fin de recolectar energ\u00eda solar y convertirla en calor, que se puede utilizar para producir electricidad o almacenar para su uso posterior. Este dispositivo se emplea con m\u00e1s frecuencia en grandes centrales el\u00e9ctricas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sin embargo, la tecnolog\u00eda de la energ\u00eda solar no termina con la generaci\u00f3n de electricidad mediante sistemas fotovoltaicos o termosolares. Estos dispositivos del sistema solar deben integrarse en hogares, negocios y redes el\u00e9ctricas.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Fuente: <\/strong>Office of Energy Effience and Renewable Energy<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The sunlight that strikes the planet\u2019s surface in an hour and a half is enough to handle the entire world\u2019s energy consumption for a year!&nbsp; If you\u2019re wondering how solar energy is converted into electricity, you are in the right place!&nbsp; Solar technologies convert sunlight into electricity through photovoltaic (PV) panels or mirrors that concentrate [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","content-type":"","om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_uag_custom_page_level_css":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"default","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[23],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1632","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized-en"],"featured_image_urls_v2":{"full":"","thumbnail":"","medium":"","medium_large":"","large":"","1536x1536":"","2048x2048":"","trp-custom-language-flag":""},"post_excerpt_stackable_v2":"<p>The sunlight that strikes the planet\u2019s surface in an hour and a half is enough to handle the entire world\u2019s energy consumption for a year!&nbsp; If you\u2019re wondering how solar energy is converted into electricity, you are in the right place!&nbsp; Solar technologies convert sunlight into electricity through photovoltaic (PV) panels or mirrors that concentrate solar radiation.&nbsp; Solar radiation is also known as electromagnetic radiation, that is emitted by the sun.
