«Solar power”

The sun is our most important source of energy. It warms the earth's atmosphere, vaporizes water from the oceans, drivers the resulting clouds by means of winds to the continents, where they cause rains and rivers. These drench the thirst of people, animals and of plants which draw their energy directly from sun and pass it on to us when we eat them. That has been going on since prehistoric times. Now it can do a little more. It could provide all the energy needed by a modern industrial society worldwide for the indefinite future; which no “conventional” energy source could do. It could do it easy, without the pollution and hazards associated with those exhaustible sources. Most people still would like that, especially if they knew that it can be done profitably. They are not supposed to be aware of that, and a major effort is expended to make them believe that it would require economic sacrifices rather than benefits. In the 1970s, there was widespread enthusiasm, and a genuine grassroots movement emerged in the U.S., in anticipation of an imminent transition to an economy based on the solar sources of energy that came in the wake of the first “oil shock” and boycott (1973). There are some, who fear a transition to solar power, and they are very powerful and determined. Instead of being confined to a few small

”niche markets”, new solar technologies could easily have supplied a double -digit percentage of energy used by now. All that we maintained at the time was that it could be very substantial starting profitably almost immediately. It was /is the prime example of confluence, rather than conflict, of environmental and economic wellness. It is essential for sustainable development worldwide, i.e. also in industrial countries. The main key to serious direct solar energy is that the sunlight first be focused, concentrated. Inexpensive, high-grade focusing devices could have been available by easy mass- production in the 70-s.
