Problems solved by technology

[0002] The depletion of fossil fuels has become a well-known problem since the development of human beings, and various corresponding methods to improve this crisis have attracted widespread attention. Solar energy, as an inexhaustible and inexhaustible Energy is a powerful resource to solve this problem, and the corresponding solar cell is a device that converts solar energy into chemical energy, but the biggest shortcoming of this device is that it only works when there is sun Only when it can work, can it create energy that can be used by human beings. This inevitable defect will obviously limit its large-scale application. It is undoubtedly the most effective way to solve this problem by storing the produced chemical energy as fuel. also the most feasible way
