Know about the working of solar cells

There has been a significant growth in the use of renewable energy of which solar energy is a major part.  The energy from the renewable sources are increasing in trend has it is affordable and clean has compared to the energy from the non-renewable or conventional source.  The constant increase in the prices of electricity is the main reason behind the switch. However, the renewable energy is also brought into use due to the promotion of environmental awareness in few years. There are various solar appliances available in the market today.

The most common solar appliances that are in use are the solar cookers, solar water pumps and the solar lamps.  All the solar appliances obtain the power from the devices through solar panel which constitutes of several little Solar cells that are made up of silicon. The solar energy technology is a revolution in the energy system.

Detail about the technology:
The solar cell is an electrical mechanism that converts the light energy received from the sun directly into electrical energy by the photovoltaic technique. When the solar cell is exposed to light, electric current is generated without any help from external electric source. The silicon in the solar cell captures the light falling over the solar panel which converts the light into electrical energy through physical and chemical processes. Solar power is environmentally friendly and safe to use.

Types of application:
A wide range of applications is supported by the solar cells in general as well as technical and research purposes.
Solar cells provide power to low power consuming equipment’s such as calculators, electronic watches, etc.
In many parts of the world especially the rural areas the energy generated from solar cells is used to provide electricity.
Various lighthouses and signals are powered by solar panels to operate as ocean navigation pointers.
