The history lesson is good however one mistake.

Solar energy has been in used by various ancient civilization since the beginning of human civilizations. Some ancient buildings were build based on the availability of solar energy to provide sunlight. However, the person who came up with the idea of using solar power to create electrical energy was Alexandre Edmond Becquerel. This is why the discovery of solar energy, as we know it today, is accredited to this French scientist.


Alexandre Edmond Becquerel built the world’s first photovoltaic panel at the young age of 19 and that was in the year of 1839.
