Every person on the earth knows that solar energy so efficient and free carbon emission from generating electricity. The world largest solar power plant is in China at Longyangxia Dam Solar Park. This largest power plant produce 824GW per H that can power millions of home. So how solar produce electricity ? So we are now about to know how and lets look at it.
Sun is a huge torch light that send solar energy to earth. This solar energy is absorb by solar panel that made of photovoltaic cell. This photovoltaic cell turns solar energy into electrical energy. But there's a produce you need to know.
When solar panel turns solar energy into electrical energy, the output of solar panel is DC (Direct Current) We cannot use DC to turn on our home lights. So we need to change DC to AC. This is where the inverter kicks in to change DC into AC current. This AC current will flows to Distribution board and power your house light bulbs to glow. This process is only for house hold solar panel.
For solar power plant, the solar energy turns into heat energy to produce steam on water. This stream will turn the high speed turbine to rotate and generate electricity. This is how solar energy works to produce electricity.
