Radiation Hazards of Solar Power Plants?

Somebody say: solar power stations have radiation, will make plants do not blossom and bear fruit.  Someone also say: solar power stations will affect the human`s body.

In fact, everything has radiation. There are two types of radiation: ionizing radiation and non-ionizing radiation. It is the ionizing radiation which is harmful to humans.

Ionizing radiation is measured in millisieverts. Take a chest X-ray, about 0.2 millisieverts. CT scans of different sites, the highest is about 10 millisieverts. For the human body, it is safe to accumulate no more than 100 millisieverts a year.

The ionizing radiation of a banana is about 0.0000778 millisieverts, which means that it is safe to eat no more than 1.28 million bananas a year. Is 1.28 million bananas a lot to eat in a year? If you sleep eight hours a day and eat bananas for the remaining 16 hours, you need to eat an average of 3.652 bananas every minute.

So the ionizing radiation we encounter in our daily lives is basically negligible. When it comes to ionizing radiation, we can't talk about its dangers without numbers.

It comes to non-ionizing radiation, such as mobile phones, computers, humidifiers, WIFI, hair dryers, etc. are almost 0 millisieverts. If you have to calculate, you have to calculate the value of their electromagnetic radiation, which is measured in μT or microtesla. It's usually a few to a dozen μT. The ionizing radiation value of these items is added together, and the μT value is not as high as that obtained by going out in the sun. So all the plants and animals on Earth are basically unaffected by these values.

Solar power generation belongs to non-ionizing radiation, which is the direct conversion of light energy into direct current energy through the characteristics of semiconductors, and then the direct current is converted into alternating current that can be used by us through the inverter. The photovoltaic module itself does not produce any electromagnetic radiation when generating electricity.

After scientific identification, the installation of solar power stations on the roof, the electromagnetic environment is lower than that of common household appliances. The amount produced will not affect human health. Non-ionizing radiation cannot directly affect the interior of the organism, cannot ionize, and plays a role in surface heating at most . Like when we are out in the sun, we may feel hot; And most of these other appliances, we stand next to, don't even feel the heat.

So Solar power plant is safe, safe, and safe in Radiation.
