SOLAR PHOTOVOLTAIC
Photovoltaic(PV) is a method of generating electrical power by converting solar radiation into direct current
electricity using semiconductors that exhibit the photovoltaic effect. Photovoltaic power generation employs solar panels composed of a number of solar cells containing a photovoltaic material. Materials presently used for photovoltaic include mono crystalline silicon, polycrystalline silicon, amorphous silicon, cadmium telluride,
and copper indium gallium sulfide. Due to the increased demand for renewable energy sources, the
manufacturing of solar cells and photovoltaic arrays has advanced considerably in recent years.
