For example,a tree would certainly never grow and-|||-provide fuel in the form of wood were it not for the sun.-|||-Because the sun is so important in the production of all forms of heating fuel,more and-|||-more time and money are being spent studying ways to change power from the sun directly into a-|||-form of heat.-|||-The process in use for collecting energy from the sun-known as solar energy-is quite-|||-simple.The sunlight hits a metal plate known as a flat-plate collector,and the plate absorbs the-|||-heat from the sun.This heat,in turn,heats a liquid inside the plate.A layer of fiberglass inside-|||-the plate helps prevent this heat from escaping.In this way,solar heat can be stored in a liquid-|||-solution equaling about 1,000 watts of electricity per square metre.-|||-In the 1960s,a solar furnace was fixed in the Pyreness Mountains of France to test the use-|||-of solar energy.In this furnace,a mirror is used to concentrate the sun`s heat.-|||-This concentrated heat keeps temperature in the fumace as high as 6,000 F.-|||-() 1.How does the amount of heat the sun gives off in two weeks compare with all the other-|||-known sources and reserves of energy?-|||-A.More.
