Solar cells are electronic components that can directly convert energy from sunlight into electrical energy. This process is called photovoltaic. Photovoltaic is derived from the Photo and voltaic, Photos can be define as a process of radiation from the sun that affects the collision between silicon atoms with photons from sunlight and are usually called energy. Voltaic means the release of electrons from silicon atoms due to the collision which accumulate on the negative pole. Photovoltaic is a process that uses sunlight directly. More details can
be said that sunlight can be converted directly into electric current with the help of solar cells. Now solar cells also known as Photovoltaic (PV).
