Solar power is energy harnessed from sunlight using solar panels or photovoltaic (PV) cells. It is converted into electricity for use in homes, businesses, and other applications.

How do solar panels work?

Solar panels are made of photovoltaic cells that absorb sunlight and convert it into electricity. When sunlight hits the cells, it excites electrons, generating an electric current which is then used to power electrical devices.

What are photovoltaic cells?

Photovoltaic cells, or solar cells, are the building blocks of solar panels. They are made from semiconductor materials like silicon, which produce electricity when exposed to sunlight through the photovoltaic effect.
