This video gives a brief summary of solar power. Solar power is a type of renewable energy, which means it is energy made from resources that nature will replace. In the case of solar power, we are creating electricity from the Sun’s energy and the Sun’s energy won’t run out. It is also ‘clean’ energy as it doesn’t pollute the air or the water.
