Mechanism of generation
The solar cell is composed of a P-type
semiconductor and an N-type semiconductor.
Solar light hitting the cell produces two types of
electrons, negatively and positively charged
electrons in the semiconductors.
Negatively charged (-) electrons gather around
the N-type semiconductor while positively
charged (+) electrons gather around the P-type
semiconductor. When you connect loads such as
a light bulb, electric current flows between the two
electrodes.

Solar Photovoltaic Work
PV cells are made of special materials called
semiconductors and in this case, silicon.

When a photon (a light particle) hits the panel,
it has enough energy to knock an electron
loose, allowing it to flow freely.

The panel then has several electrical fields to
force the electrons to move in a certain
direction, creating a current which can be
used to do work.

How to Use
To complete the PV
module, several layers are
added.

A - Cover Glass
B - Antireflective Coating
C - Contact Grid
D - N-type Silicon
E - P-type Silicon
F - Back Contact

Here is an example of
how a home can be wired
to run on Solar PV power

The growth of solar energy

The growth rate is among the fastest in
energy sources. Most of the growth is driven
by the growth in Germany, Japan, and USA.

Production In solar energy India has also
concerning about the use of Non renewable
energy
Advantages

Very clean, sustainable, durable, low cost for
maintenance.

Solar energy at selected uses (off-grid)
already is quite
competitive among other energy sources.

The solar energy cost is coming close to the
grid connected at some region. In Japan,
there is a sign of self-sustaining growth of
market.

Disadvantages

The production of energy is not so high.

High Power consumption products will not run by
the home used Solar panel.

The Battery system is so much costly
