Learning about solar technology Anonymous 30-08-26 14:13:22 No. 26266
How would you go about learning about solar? Do you know of any useful material to learn about it? I'd love to learn more about the different technologies involved and about the installation of solar panels and power generation. Maybe this knowledge can be put into practice to help one's local community. I'm sure there's lots of solid state physics and electronics involved, but any advice would be more than welcome! t.
