Solar Energy is the energy that is produced from the sun whether it is in
the form of sunlight particles that can create electricity, such as solar electricity or photovoltaics, or in the form of heat to warm water or air space.
Photovoltaics (PVs) are arrays of cells containing a solar photovoltaic material that converts solar radiation into direct current electricity. Solar panels are the foundation of any photovoltaic system.

Energy use in typical Texas homes:
45% for heating and cooling; 24% for heating water; 31% for base electric
use such as refrigerators - 10%, cooking - 5%, clothes dryer - 5% and other miscellaneous electrical items - 11%
