The history of solar energy usage is rich and spans many centuries. As early as the 7th century B.C., humans harnessed sunlight to ignite fires with the help of magnifying glasses. This rudimentary yet effective method showcased the potential of solar energy. By the 3rd century B.C., the Greeks and Romans had advanced this concept by using mirrors to focus sunlight, lighting torches for religious ceremonies and other purposes.In the 1st century A.D., the Chinese took another significant step by utilizing solar energy to heat their homes.

The history of solar energy usage is rich and spans many centuries. As early as the 7th century B.C., humans harnessed sunlight to ignite fires with the help of magnifying glasses. This rudimentary yet effective method showcased the potential of solar energy. By the 3rd century B.C., the Greeks and Romans had advanced this concept by using mirrors to focus sunlight, lighting torches for religious ceremonies and other purposes.In the 1st century A.D., the Chinese took another significant step by utilizing solar energy to heat their homes. They designed their buildings to maximize sunlight exposure, particularly during the winter months, to maintain warmth. This practice not only improved comfort but also demonstrated an early understanding of passive solar heating techniquesThese historical milestones highlight the innovative ways ancient civilizations tapped into solar energy long before the modern era of photovoltaic cells and solar panels. Their ingenuity laid the groundwork for the sophisticated solar technologies we use today, underscoring the enduring human quest to harness the sun's power.
