Solar Power - Sustainable Energy System

Fuels derived from fossils release a tremendous amount of carbon dioxide into the environment along with other harmful gases. This has altered the dynamics of the previously stable biosphere with an increase in global warming, leading to melting glaciers and rise in sea levels. Moreover, if the present rate of fuel consumption continues, the earth would be soon depleted of its resources. 

There is a growing need to switch to alternative sources of energy which are renewable and clean. Sustainable energy broadly expands into geothermal, hydro power, wind energy and solar power. Sri Lanka has the potential to tap the energy from the sun to power the needs of the country. ADMO Solar is a Sri Lankan company that is working towards meeting the energy requirements of the nation through solar power. There is a need for a growing consciousness among people to adopt this switch towards green and sustainable energy.
