How
Solar Works
Solar panels are a technology to CONVERT SUNLIGHT INTO ELECTRICITY that can be used by homes and businesses.
It offers a clean, renewable, and cost-effective source to produce the electricity WE NEED TO POWER OUR LIVES.
The photovoltaic effect directly converts energy from the sun into electricity.
Photovoltaic Cell
Photovoltaic (PV) technology involves the release of electrons from their atoms when photons are exposed to a semiconductor, such as crystalline silicon.
PV cells are encased in glass to form solar modules.
Multiple solar modules are connected to create a solar array.
Expanding the number of modules increases the electrical output.
Large solar projects are often referred to as “utility scale” solar because they generate significant amounts of electricity that is delivered directly into the grid.
