Solar Panels

What are solar panels and how do they work?

The solar energy emitted by the sun is also called electromagnetic radiation. The sunlight that falls on the earth is directly absorbed through the solar panels where they are located which then turns that energy into electricity. This electricity is then stored in batteries or thermal storage. Sunlight that hit on the ground for one and a half hours is enough for one year's consumption of electricity. The sunlight at every spot on the ground is different and the solar technologies capture them to convert their form into some other energy form.
