A PV system converts sunlight into electricity through the use of photovoltaic cells. These cells are made up of semiconductor materials, usually silicon, which have the ability to absorb photons from sunlight. When the sunlight hits the cells, the photons transfer their energy to the electrons in the semiconductor material, causing them to become excited and break free from their atoms. This creates a flow of electrons, which is then captured as direct current (DC) electricity by the PV system. The DC electricity is then converted into alternating current (AC) electricity through an inverter, making it suitable for powering homes and other electrical devices.
A PV system, also known as a solar panel system, converts sunlight into electricity through the use of photovoltaic cells. These cells are made of semiconducting materials, typically silicon, which have the ability to convert sunlight directly into electricity. When sunlight hits the surface of the PV cells, it excites the electrons within the material, causing them to flow, creating an electric current. This current is then captured and harnessed by the system, allowing it to be used as electricity for various purposes.
A PV (photovoltaic) system converts sunlight into electricity through the use of solar panels. These panels contain photovoltaic cells made of semiconducting materials, such as silicon. When sunlight hits these cells, it excites the electrons, causing them to flow and create an electric current. This direct current (DC) is then converted into alternating current (AC) using an inverter, which can be used to power homes, businesses, or other electrical devices.
