Everything Can Be Happen Before Sunrise
‘’… In this way Archimedes, who thought that the crown was made of pure gold, jumped into a naked street with great joy and shouted: Eureka! Eureka! (Found! Found!)…’’ We all know this little story you’ve read a little. The story of Archimedes’ finding the buoyancy of water … So what else did Archimedes find to make our daily life easier? Although he did not run naked for the discovery mamış için Euraka! ? ’Eureka! Let us share one with you … According to the legend; Archimedes, to collect the energy of the sun at a point to set fire to the enemy ships; used a series of mirrors placed on the coastline. In other words, he used light to collect light on a material that was both reflective and collecting, and then reflect this collection of light.
In the following centuries, it was observed that the light shining from some materials could create electric current (photovoltaic effect). In the following years, the first solar cell was produced which converted sunlight into electricity using selenium and gold. After all, Einstein gathered all these efforts under one roof; the Nobel Prize for the discovery of the photoelectric effect law that says the amount of light can be measured.. Later, it was decided that the sun would share its generously shared energy to humanity and silicon solar cells came into the market. The market is increasing solar energy; the space race between the US and Russia at that time became the center of investments. Some of the first satellites were powered by photovoltaic cells. In a rapidly developing technology environment, the use of solar energy has taken its share.

There is no doctor, When There is a Sun
In the 2000s, the total global solar installation has exceeded 1 GW. World-wide rapidly spreading solar energy systems; from spacecraft to the roofs of the tiny village houses of Anatolia. This technology; it has pioneered a global energy movement from a consumption-focused perspective. It has given birth to new markets. Easy access to solar energy; states have followed the way to support such investments, abolished taxes and focused on different projects. In the early 2000s, demand exceeded 1 GW and in 10 years, this demand exceeded 30 GW.

The Sun Doesn’t Scratch With Honeycomb
The greatest need for world population growth and industrialization is energy. Since 1950, the world’s population has risen by 2.5 times, while energy demand has increased by 7 times. World energy consumption shows that; 90 percent of the energy consumed is petroleum, natural gas and coal.
So, they are fossil sources. Unfortunately, fossil sources are not renewable energy sources in nature. If we think that the amount of energy used by the growing human population increases day by day, we are in a dead end. Oil and natural gas are the major countries in the world and they determine their prices. As such, the danger is increasing. We can solve this problem by using renewable energy sources, especially in countries dependent on energy. It is obvious that it is more logical to use cleaner and less costly renewable energy sources. Fortunately, we have a generous friend like the Sun, so we need less foreign countries. Increasing the partnership with the sun and not thanking anyone; Doesn’t it seem like a nice solution in terms of both our internal relations and our external relations?
