Solar PV panels, PV stands for Photovoltaic derived from two words Photo(photon) and Voltaic which sums up the process in essence.
Notably, simply put Solar PV panels produce electricity from photons, the rays of light from the sun and not from the heat at all.
The Solar cells absorb the light, incoming energy from the sunrays (photons). The status of photons is changed to electrons in process. These Electrons generate an electrical current, when enough is produced by all cells i. A solar panel, this flows through and combines with the other panels output connected together to an inverter. The inverter, converts the DC current to AC current, the same format of clean energy, electricity as used in our house.
