???? size= asked:
A solar panel facing the sun at noon in mid-summer receives more intensity of the light than when it is at horizontal. However, it can receives more total solar energy when it is at horizontal than when it is tilted during a long summer day. Regradless if it is shaded by building or trees. why is that so?

MJ in Illinois asked: Are there U.S. federal tax advantages or rebates for using wind power? Does Illinois have tax advantages or rebates for using wind power? What are the required average wind speeds for Chicago and other areas to successfully use wind power?

Ostara asked:
I’m having trouble finding this answer on the internet: partly because I’m kind of confused what I’m supposed to answer…
Could you quickly explain it, give a good and easily understandable website (or just answer the question all together). Just so you know: it has to be the potential use of wind energy for the World and not the US.
Thank you so much!
