SOLAR PV SYSTEM AND ITS PROCESS OF GENERATING ELECTRICITY Nowadays, you must have probably seen and noticed many solar panels installed on rooftops and ground mounted in your neighborhood. On the back of your mind, you must be wondering how the solar power system works to generate electricity. Well in this blog we will take a look at the cells of Solar PV System, the technology behind a solar panel that creates energy from the sun. But before let us understand Solar Photovoltaic System and its elements. Solar Photovoltaic System The electrical energy generated from solar energy is converted from solar photovoltaic cells or solar cells. Solar PV systems behave similar to any other power generation systems and are known when PV cells clubbed together in a system. It not only makes use of solar energy that is easy and convenient to store, but also consists of proper conduction of electrical power, facilitates electrical conversion, controls the flow of energy, distribution & provides the necessary storage of the energy produced by the array. With a different set of components, diverse applications have diverse system requirements which work in synchronization. Solar inverter with anti-islanding mode feature, system and battery controller, solar PV modules, power conversion unit and an assortment of a balance of system (BOS) hardware that includes over-current, wiring, disconnect devices and surge protection, are the elements of a Solar Photovoltaic System. How does solar PV system work? The photovoltaic cells are one of the six components of solar panels and are the essential one that generates electricity. The photovoltaic effect is the transformation of sunlight into electrical energy by the solar cell, if so then why do we refer solar cells as “photovoltaic.” To create electrical current photovoltaic cells uses light energy and generates electricity by absorbing sunlight.
Within a single solar panel, there are many PV cells, and the current created by all of the cells together add up to adequate electricity to help power your home. Overall there will be 60 cells linked together in a standard panel used in a residential rooftop system. On the other hand, commercial solar installations often use larger panels with 72 or more photovoltaic cells. Through the photovoltaic effect, photovoltaic cells generate flowing electricity and absorb sunlight. However, the process varies depending on the type of solar power system. Few common steps across all solar photovoltaic cells are, first light absorbed by the solar cell knocks electrons loose, and then creating an electrical current electrons begins to flow. Lastly, the electrical current is combined and captured with other solar cells. Hence, with a solar panel installation any property owner can start generating free electricity from the sun as solar photovoltaic cells are the building blocks of solar panels. With SaveGeo’s rooftop solutions, you can transform your rooftop into a solar power plant, an excellent source of solar energy, for both commercial and residential consumers.
