Solar

The Earth is endowed with an endless source of energy, travelling at 300,000 km/s over a distance of 150 million km from the sun, striking the Earth’s surface at 1 KW of energy per square meter, giving a total of 174 quadrillion watts. This energy is produced by the process of fusing two hydrogen atoms to form helium atoms and during the process gives out an enormous amount of energy. Scientists have replicated fusion in weapons in the 1950s and in laboratory experiments but they are not quite there yet in controlling the energy produced. In the meantime the energy from the sun is free for us to gladly make use of.
