History of solar panels
The concept itself of solar thermal energy appeared in 1767 when Swiss scientist man Horace Saussure invented the first solar collector, or “hot box”, a simple wooden box with the interior painted in black and covered with glass. With this first solar panel has reached a temperature of 87°C.
Solar heating has started to take magnitude when Clarence Kemp patented the first commercial system for water heater in 1891. The idea quickly caught in regions where the fuel had to be imported for water heating.
In Romania this system it is used from very long time by people especially in rural areas, based on the same principle, remembering us rudimentary systems, that barrels of aluminum or plastic filled with water which are mounted on the house, this are used to provide household hot water heated by sunlight.
At present due to reduce energy resources and as gas, increasingly more people are in search of solar thermal energy to reduce costs and carbon fingerprint
From the geographically Romania has a very good solar cover having an important potential energy due to this fact.
Flat solar panels were fashionable in Florida and South California in 1920. Who built the first Israeli prototype for solar water heaters was Levi Yissar, who in 1953 he started NerYah Company, Israel was the first producer who sold solar collectors. Given the fact that Israel was well positioned geographically, received in abundance solar energy, in 1967 already 20% of the population of the country used this system for water heating. At present solar panels in Israel provide hot water to over 80% of houses, knowing a global development.
