Solar technology is broadly classified as Solar Thermal and Solar Photovoltaic applications. Solar Thermal isbased on heat from sunlight and uses tube, box or concentrator type collectors for tapping the energy. Itsapplicationsareforcookers,waterheatersandagriculturalproductsmostofwhicharenotyetpopular.SolarThermalelectricityplantsareamoreviablesolutionforourpowerneeds.
