increasing. PV is a solar power technology that uses solar cells or solar photovoltaic arrays to convert light from the sun directly into electricity. Photovoltaic is the direct conversion of light into electricity at the atomic level. Some materials exhibit a property known as the photoelectric effect that causes them to absorb photons of light and release electrons. When these free electrons are captured‚ electric current results that can be used as electricity. Solar cells produce direct current

About Solar Energy * The sun’s rays‚ or solar energy‚ have been used since the beginning of time and is vital to all living things. In addition to solar energy being a constant resource‚ heat and electricity are other forms of energy that can be made from solar energy. The largest advantage of solar energy is that it is a free and unlimited source of energy. Solar energy is also the cleanest energy source that does not compromise or add to global warming. Technology allows solar energy to be

is an Oxford based company‚ which plans to sell‚ install and maintain photovoltaic cells. Photovoltaic’s is a method of generating electrical power by converting solar energy into usable current electricity using semiconductors that exhibit the photovoltaic effect. Photovoltaic’s method employs solar panels on the roof or on the walls of the house‚ which are composed of a number of cells containing a photovoltaic cell. The UK is setting itself a mandatory target of ensuring that 15% of our energy

first energy source that is solar energy) BODY I. One of the energy source used around the world is solar energy. It is one example of renewable energy because the sun shines us endlessly. Some of the countries using solar energy are Egypt‚ German and Japan. A. Energy can be extracted from the sun by using two methods. 1. First is by using solar panel which is lenses or mirror that is used to focus the sun ray and produce heat. 2. Second is by using solar

First Solar Turns Sunshine into Profits Case Summary: First Solar was founded in 1999 from the Walton family. According to the Marketing Sun Power‚ First Solar’s mission is “to create enduring value by enabling a world powered by clean‚ affordable solar electricity.” (p. 90) The company manufactures solar modules‚ which have razor-thin cadmium telluride. They are manufactured this way because it can still produce electricity even when clouds are blocking the sun. With this product First Solar

Chapter 1 Cell Theory- in the 18th century‚ two scientists came up with the cell theory. Schleiden and Schwen. 3 corollaries of the cell theory: -all cells are alike in chemical composition -all cells store and process information in the same way -all cells arise from other cell through cell division 5 types of different Microscopes 1. Light Microscope- produces 2-D image Direct descendants of Hooks scope> take two lenses to a light source> used this to magnify images up to 1‚000 fold.
