Solar energy is the radiant energy that the sun emits and is captured for use in a variety of processes. Solar panels are used to collect it and turn the energy they produce into heat or electricity for use in buildings and other structures. This clean, sustainable energy source is essential for cutting carbon emissions and enabling a more environmentally friendly future.
how to work solar panels in home and office
Solar panels on homes and offices convert sunlight into electricity using photovoltaic cells. These cells absorb sunlight and create a flow of electrons, generating direct current (DC) electricity. Inverters then convert this into alternating current (AC), usable to power lights, appliances, and electronics, reducing reliance on traditional energy sources.
