Solar photovoltaic (PV) power generation is the process of converting energy from the sun into electricity using solar panels. Solar panels, also called PV panels, are combined into arrays in a PV system. PV systems can also be installed in grid-connected or off-grid (stand-alone) configurations.
Learn the basics of how photovoltaic (PV) technology works with these resources from the DOE Solar Energy Technologies Office. Solar photovoltaic modules are where the electricity gets generated, but are only one of the many parts in a complete photovoltaic (PV) system.
Photovoltaic plants generate electricity through solar panels composed of multiple solar cells. PV plants primarily use solar cells made from materials like monocrystalline, polycrystalline, or amorphous silicon. Monocrystalline silicon cells achieve the highest efficiency, but are also the most expensive.
A photovoltaic system for residential, commercial, or industrial energy supply consists of the solar array and a number of components often summarized as the balance of system (BOS).
Solar photovoltaic (PV) refers to the technology that converts sunlight directly into electricity using semiconductor materials. These materials, typically silicon-based, exhibit the photovoltaic effect, where they generate an electric current when exposed to sunlight.
By harnessing the sun’s power, users can lower their dependence on fossil fuels, contributing to a more sustainable future. Additionally, solar PV systems can lead to substantial cost savings on energy bills, as they allow users to generate their own electricity.
