Modern technologies are slowly but surely marching forward. At the present time, it will no longer be a discovery for anyone that the rays of the sun can be converted into energy, which is so necessary for our everyday life in the house.
How can you use the gifts of nature to generate electricity? How does it work? For this we need electrical panels or, in other words, electrical batteries.
Solar panels work on the basis of the photovoltaic effect. Several interconnected solar cells, semiconductor devices, directly convert solar energy into electric current, i.e. electricity. The material for the photocells is selenium or silicon, most often silicon. The photocell consists of two layers of different conductivity. Under the action of sunlight, the electrons of these layers are set in motion and the layers exchange electrons in a circle, passing through the load, which gives an electric current. But, unfortunately, the efficiency of one photocell is significantly low and therefore they are combined in panels. Hence the name solar panels.
Solar panels are completely light-dependent. On a cloudy day, the battery will generate significantly less electric current than on a sunny day. For this, batteries are used that are capable of storing electrical energy.
The direct current accumulated in solar panels or batteries is subsequently transferred to the inverter, where it is converted into alternating current. An uninterruptible power supply inverter can supply the consumer with the required amount of electricity at any time. Based on how much electricity needs to be generated, specialists calculate how many modules with photocells need to be installed. Location plays an important role in this matter.
Solar panels can be used as a backup option during a main power outage in the house, and are also irreplaceable assistants on long trips or hikes. Uninterrupted power supply for summer cottages can only be provided by solar panels. Based on the fact that solar panels do not pollute the environment, the dacha will always be an environmentally friendly place.
Solar panels exceed all expectations in terms of durability. You do not need to have special knowledge to care for solar panels, everything is quite simple and easy. Therefore, panels are very quickly gaining popularity not only in industry, but also in everyday life.
