WHAT IS SOLAR PV
Solar pv (solar photovaltic panels) is a renewable
energy system which uses cells to convert sunlight to electricity. The cells used
are called pv cells and are made up of thin layers of semi conducting materials usually
silicone, which generates the electric charge when exposed to sunlight. The more
sunlight the panels are exposed to the more electricity is produced.
once the sunlights
energy has been converted into electricity , it is then converted from DC (direct
current) into AC (alternating current) using an invertor. The electricity generated
is then channeled into your home and can be used on your everyday electrical appliances
such as lights, televisions directly from your plug sockets.
With the government announcing
a series of incentives to those who use solar pv, now is a great time to switch to
solar pv a clean source of renewable energy.
