Photovoltaic panels generate electricity by capturing sunlight and converting it into usable power. These panels contain semiconductor materials, usually silicon, that create an electric current when exposed to sunlight. This process, called the photovoltaic effect, produces direct current (DC) electricity. An inverter then converts DC into alternating current (AC), which powers homes, businesses, and other electrical systems. Solar panels work efficiently during daylight hours, storing excess energy in batteries or feeding it into the grid for later use. This renewable energy source reduces dependence on fossil fuels, lowers electricity bills, and contributes to a cleaner, more sustainable environment.
