cell is a device which generates electricity directly from visible light by means of the photovoltaic effect. In order to generate useful power‚ it is necessary to connect a number of cells together to form a solar panel‚ also known as a photovoltaic module. Photovoltaic effect: What is a solar cell? How does it works How much energy can it produce? The photons (light particles) produce an electrical current as they strike the surface of the thin silicon wafers. A single solar cell produces

Administration‚ the U.S. “is the birthplace to some of the word’s greatest clean energy technology”‚ but produces less than half of Germany’s clean energy program. In the last couple decades China has become “the worlds largest producer of solar modules”‚ using the United States’ solar technology breakthroughs. In a study conducted in 2009‚ the United States produced less than 15% of the world’s renewable electricity. In the past‚ computer technology began with large consoles with slow speeds.
