FAQS 4

How do solar panels produce electricity?

At the core of solar panels is the photovoltaic (PV) effect. When sunlight strikes the solar cells, it excites the electrons in the semiconductor material, causing them to flow through the material. This flow of electrons is what creates electricity. The more sunlight that hits the solar cells, the more electricity is generated.

How do solar panels convert sunlight into electricity?

Solar panels convert sunlight into electricity using photovoltaic cells. The photovoltaic effect is the process that generates electricity from sunlight. Solar energy systems include panels, inverters, and batteries for storage. Switching to solar can save you money and help the environment.

What is solar power & how does it work?

Solar power is all about converting sunlight into usable energy. The sun is a giant nuclear reactor in the sky, constantly sending out energy in the form of light and heat. We can capture this energy using solar panels and convert it into electricity or heat our homes and water.

What type of electricity does a solar panel use?

AC is the type of electrical current used when you plug appliances into normal wall sockets. What’s the difference between solar PV panels and solar thermal panels? Solar PV panels generate electricity, as described above, while solar thermal panels generate heat.
