How Does Solar Panel Work

Solar panel works on photovoltaic effect. Solar Panels are made of silicon semiconductor material. when sun light hit solar panel material it generate free electron. Electric field in plates guides the electron to flow in a direction. Flow of electron generates electricity.

What is photovoltaic effect

Sunlight is made from tiny particle called Photons. When photon hits semiconductor material of solar plates, it energise. When semiconductor material energise it free up the electron, making them move and create an electric current.

What is the semiconductor material

Semiconductor material is special type of material that conduct electricity but not at easy a metal. Its conducting properties comes between an insulator (like rubber or wooden) or conductor (metal).

semiconductor material have unique properties that make them useful in solar field. They can be manipulated to control the flow of electricity. Silicon is the most widely used semiconductor material due to its abundance and controllable conductivity.

Components of solar panel

Solar panels consist of several essential components working together to harness solar energy. These include photovoltaic cells, which are made of semiconductor materials like silicon. Additionally, there are metal contacts on the cell’s surface, electrically connecting the cells and allowing for the flow of generated electricity.”

Types of solar panels

Various technologies and designs used in solar panel manufacturing. This includes monocrystalline, polycrystalline, and thin-film solar panels, each with distinct advantages and applications. Understanding these differences aids in selecting the most suitable solar panel type for specific energy needs and environmental conditions.”

Can solar panel generate electricity in bad weather

Yes, it can – solar power only requires some level of daylight in order to harness the sun’s energy. That said, the rate at which solar panels generate electricity does vary depending on the amount of direct sunlight and the quality, size, number and location of panels in use.

How much electricity india produce through solar

Electricity generation through solar has increased in india over the years. At the end of year 2023 india produce 74 GW power. India stand 4th in the world in solar power after China, America and Germany. India have a target of 280 GW power at the end on 2030.

Solar energy in India

The sun is considered as a life saver in india. The sun is worshiped in India from ancient time. Sun is the reason the life on the earth. Plants get the direct energy from the sun. The life is thriving on the earth just because of sun. Ancient Indian know this thing very well, that’s why they worship the sun as a god of life

solar energy in india

There has been a great awareness in india through last years. Solar energy distributed application through decentralised and attractive subsidy promote the solar energy in tier-2 and tier-3 cities. Solar water pump has lead a great revolution in Indian farms. In the villages of india daily basic requirements are fulfilled with solar energy.

National institute of solar energy has assessed that india has potential of 748 GW energy production. To promote the solar energy Indian government permitted 100% FDI (Foreign Direct Investment)

Top 5 states to produce most solar energy

  1. Rajasthan
  2. Karnatka
  3. Gujrat
  4. Tamilnadu
  5. Telangana
