태양 is from Chinese character so it’s sino-Korean while 해 is pure Korean. Can be used interchangeably.

hmm First, they are the same thing.
BUT '태양' gives a slightly more intelligent feeling than '해' (maybe? )
example)
1.
아침 해가 떴습니다. (The morning sun has risen.)
아침 태양이 떴습니다. (a bit strange for korean)
2.
태양은 지구에 많은 에너지를 공급한다. (The sun supplies a lot of energy to the earth.)
해는 지구에 많은 에너지를 공급한다. (almost not used )
Finally, '태양' is almost used in science --- etc (intelligent thing)
해 is almost used in daily life.
BUT the boundary between the two is ambiguous...
