With the ever-increasing demand of electricity in the modern world, while encountering the threat of a potential exhaustion of the non-renewable sources, like fossil fuels, on which most of our power production depends. At the same time, we are also facing a constantly worsening problem of global warming and environmental pollution. This situation requires an energy solution, which not only uses renewable energy sources, but should also be environment-friendly.

The greatest energy source in our planetary system is the Sun itself.
It has been burning and radiating unfathomable energy every second of every day for more than 4.5 billion years now, and will continue to do so unless a cosmic disaster strikes. It is the most noticeable object in our sky, and that was probably the reason why it was revered so much by the ancients, and almost all the great civilizations of the past, including the Egyptian and the Mayans, who even worshipped the sun. Many worship the sun even today.
