Fiber Optics in Solar Energy Applications

Solar energy has recently become a popular alternative source to meet energy demands around the world due to the fluctuation of oil/coal prices and global warming issues. Oil is a limited and diminishing resource, and because of this, the price surges when demand is high. Oil and/or coal powered generators, when converting fossil fuel into electrical power, also produce enormous CO₂ and other pollutants that are harmful to the earth.
