Photovoltaic (PV) Systems

Photovoltaic (PV) systems convert sunlight directly into electricity using solar panels made of semiconductor materials like silicon. When sunlight hits these panels, it excites electrons, generating direct current (DC) electricity. An inverter then converts this DC into alternating current (AC), which is used to power homes, businesses, or sent to the grid. PV systems are a clean, renewable energy source that reduce reliance on fossil fuels, lower carbon emissions, and can decrease energy costs. They are scalable, from small residential setups to large solar farms, and their efficiency depends on factors like panel quality, sunlight availability, and system design.
