One of the benefits of using solar panels for power generation is that unlike thermal energy, it does not emit green house gases during electricity generation. However, a latest study hinted a minor rise in local temperatures due to the use of inefficient solar panels.

Solar panels work at full efficiency at around 25˚C. So even in winter they work fine. Even at lower temperatures, they typically perform well if sunshine is good. Colder regions, with their lesser issues of dust are also beneficial for solar generation. Remember, solar energy is generated by lightRead more
Solar panels work at full efficiency at around 25˚C. So even in winter they work fine. Even at lower temperatures, they typically perform well if sunshine is good. Colder regions, with their lesser issues of dust are also beneficial for solar generation. Remember, solar energy is generated by light falling on solar panels, not by heat. So really hot temperatures offer no benefit to users.
