Lighting Up the Future

Created by NIE in Future Leaders 15 Oct 2024

Have you ever wondered how solar panels turn sunlight into electricity? Solar energy is an exciting technology that uses the sun’s rays to generate power. In countries like Kenya, where the sun shines brightly for most of the year, solar energy offers a sustainable way to meet growing energy demands.

The science behind solar power is called the “photovoltaic effect.” When sunlight hits solar panels, it creates an electric current that can power homes, schools, and even entire villages. In rural areas without access to the national grid, solar lamps provide light to students studying at night.

Governments and private companies are investing in solar farms to produce clean energy and reduce pollution. Young people interested in science and the environment can explore careers in engineering, research, and energy management. Organizations like Strathmore University offer courses focused on renewable energy, preparing students for careers in this field.

The future is bright for those who embrace solar technology. Could you be the one to discover the next breakthrough in renewable energy?
