A solar panel generates electricity through the photovoltaic effect. When sunlight hits the solar panel, it excites the electrons in the semiconductor material, creating a flow of electrons. This flow of electrons is then captured and converted into usable electricity by the solar panel.
A solar panel generates electricity through the photovoltaic effect, where sunlight is converted into electrical energy. This process occurs when the photons in sunlight strike the solar cells within the panel, causing the electrons in the cells to be excited and flow as an electric current.
