Solar Energy System

Solar power is the conversion of energy from sunlight into electricity, directly using photovoltaic (PV). Photovoltaic cells convert light into an electric current using the photovoltaic effect. A solar power system is made up of multiple photovoltaic (PV) panels.

Solar PV panels on the roofs of homes generate clean electricity by converting the energy in sunlight. This conversion takes place within solar panels of specially fabricated materials that make up the solar panels. It is a process that requires no moving parts. In most cases solar panels are connected to the mains power supply through a device called a solar power inverter.
