Humans have been using solar energy for thousands of years, but the development has been very slow, and the development and utilization in the modern sense is only a matter of nearly half a century. In 1954, Bell Labs in the United States developed the world's first solar cell, which opened a new chapter in the development and utilization of solar energy. After that, the development and utilization of solar energy technology developed rapidly, especially the worldwide oil crisis that broke out in the 1970s strongly promoted the development and utilization of solar energy. <br>After nearly half a century of hard work, solar energy utilization technology and its industry have emerged, becoming a new force in the energy industry. As we enter the 21st century, human beings will face a major challenge to achieve sustainable economic and social development. Economic development under the dual constraints of limited resources and strict environmental protection requirements has become a hot and difficult issue in the world. The energy problem will become more prominent. On the one hand, the demand for conventional energy has increased sharply and energy resources are seriously lacking. On the other hand, the development and utilization of fossil energy has brought a series of problems such as environmental pollution and greenhouse effect. The problem is largely caused by the development and utilization of energy, especially fossil energy. Therefore, in order to solve the above-mentioned energy problems and achieve sustainable development, human beings can only rely on scientific and technological progress to develop and utilize renewable clean energy on a large scale. With its unique advantages, the development and utilization of solar energy will surely develop by leaps and bounds in the 21st century, and will eventually play an important role in the transfer of the world's energy structure, becoming the dominant energy source in the late 21st century. If the 20th century is the century of petroleum, then the 21st century is the century of renewable energy, the century of solar energy.
