    Solar energy is one of the Renewable sources of energy and it is sufficient to meet the entire needs of the world.

    But it is not used extensively because of the inconsistency. Inconsistency means that sun rays are not consistent throughout the year. If the weather is not good or in winters earth does not receive sun rays continuously.
