Electricity has occupied in every corners of our lives. It can be clearly seen that cooking, working and entertaining directly or indirectly involve using electricity. People are slowly turning from fire as the source of heat to electric device that has capability to produce heat. Nevertheless, the growth of using electricity has pushed the world into energy crisis where demand is surpassing supply. In order to solve the issue, people must cut short electricity use and increase power input. It means that devices should be off when they are not in use, replace obsolete bulbs with energy efficient bulbs and at the same time build more energy harvest systems to enhance electricity production. Electrical energy can be produced by renewable sources and non-renewable sources of energy. With development in the technological field, renewable resources like water, solar, and wind current are preferred to produce electricity in order to replace fossil fuel which would not last very long. In fact, natural resources can produce multi-folds of electricity without being eradicated. However, this essay is comparing solar panel to wind turbine. Their major differences are location, method and efficiency.

Initially, the difference of both solar panel and wind turbine is method of generating electricity. Since the solar panel has defined as an object that absorbed the sunlight and turns it into electricity. The method to generate electricity by solar panel is complex. Firstly, after the sunlight shines into the panel, it has been converted from protons to electrons (Llorens, n.d.). After that, the current’s output is in a form of direct current. This is a type of electrical current which flows in one direction in a circuit and mostly loss energy when energy is carried over a long distance (“Alternating Current,”n.d.). However, the current of electricity that people use in the
