CubaSolar, officially the Cuban Society for the Promotion of Renewable Energy Sources and Environmental Respect (Spanish: Sociedad Cubana para la Promoción de las Energías Renovables y el Respeto Ambiental), is a Cuban non-governmental organization established in 1994. It promotes the use of renewable energy technology.
Solar energy is the radiant energy from the Sun's light and heat, which can be harnessed using a range of technologies such as solar electricity, solar thermal energy (including solar water heating) and solar architecture.
The first Conto Energia resulted in the relatively small amount of 163 MW of new PV power installations, perhaps because solar power was still in its infancy in 2005. The second Conto Energia introduced in 2007 resulted in a massive increase of 6,791 MW of new PV power at an annual cost of €3.27 billion and was the most costly scheme.

Abengoa Solar (formerly Solúcar Energía [1]) is a subsidiary of Abengoa. Its primary activities include designing, promotion, financing attainment, construction and operation of solar power stations that use photovoltaics , concentrated photovoltaics , or concentrated solar thermal technologies.
In 2010, the €2.6 billion European solar heating sectors consisted of small and medium-sized businesses, generated 17.3 terawatt-hours (TWh) of energy, employed 33,500 workers, and created one new job for every 80 kW of added capacity. [1] Solar energy, the fastest-growing energy source in the EU, saw an 82% cost reduction between 2010 and 2020.
In many places, wind and solar generation are complementary on a daily and a seasonal scale: there is more wind during the night and in winter when solar energy production is low. [150] Linking different geographical regions through long-distance transmission lines allows for further cancelling out of variability. [ 151 ]
