Introduction to photovoltaic power generation

Solar energy is typically divided into two main types: solar thermal power and photovoltaic (PV) power. While both harness the sun's energy, photovoltaic technology is the most commonly referenced when people talk about solar power. Photovoltaics refers to the process of converting sunlight directly into electricity using the photovoltaic effect, which occurs at the interface of semiconductor materials. This technology relies heavily on solar cells—small devices that generate electric current when exposed to light.

These individual solar cells are connected in series and then encapsulated to form a larger unit known as a solar panel or module. Once assembled, these modules are combined with other components like inverters, charge controllers, and mounting systems to create a complete photovoltaic power generation system. This system can be used for residential, commercial, or even large-scale utility applications, making it a versatile and sustainable energy solution.

As the demand for clean energy grows, photovoltaic technology continues to evolve, becoming more efficient and cost-effective. With ongoing advancements in materials and design, solar power is playing an increasingly important role in the global shift toward renewable energy sources.
