Direct way to harness solar energy:
1-Solar water heating
In this process, solar energy is used directly to generate heat. Solar panels are used to trap the heat from the sun and are used to heat water in the glass panels.
Indirect way;
2-Production of electricity
This method converts the sun’s energy into electricity. Photo-voltaic cells are used for converting solar energy into electricity. 

sardarji78: Solar energy is used directly as heat or by converting it directly into electricity, e.g. solar cooker (or solar water heater) and solar cell panels. Solar energy is used indirectly by converting it into chemical energy (like bio-mass energy), harnessing the energy of wind, sea waves, tides and ocean thermal energy, e.g. bio-gas plants and windmills.
sardarji78: I Thaught..this was also..correct

Answer:

There are three primary technologies by which solar energy is harnessed: photovoltaics (PV), which directly convert light to electricity; concentrating solar power (CSP), which uses heat from the sun (thermal energy) to drive utility-scale, electric turbines; and solar heating and cooling (SHC) systems, which collect
