Scientists have known for many years that the sun emits enormous amounts of energy that, if captured, could serve as a virtually unlimited source of power. Solar energy is contained in the sun's rays that strike the Earth each day. This energy helps make life on our planet possible by heating the Earth's surface and providing light during the daylight hours. Energy produced by sunlight can be harnessed to create electric power and to perform other tasks. Photovoltaic cells are the most common method for capturing the sun's energy.
