How Solar Panels Work

Solar panels are one of the key technologies in the field of renewable energy, harnessing sunlight to generate clean and sustainable electricity. They work based on a physical process known as the photovoltaic effect, which directly converts sunlight into usable electricity.

Principle of operation:

1.Semiconductor Materials: Solar panels are mainly made of semiconductor materials such as silicon. These materials have the ability to absorb photons of sunlight.

2.Generating Electric Current: When photons strike the surface of the solar panel, they excite electrons inside the semiconductor material, causing them to flow through the external circuit as an electric current.

3.Energy Production: The generated electric current can be used directly to power electrical devices or stored in batteries for future use.

Types of Solar Panels:

There are different types of solar panels, among which the most common are polycrystalline and monocrystalline photovoltaic panels, each with specific characteristics and performances in terms of efficiency and costs.

WADA POWER solar panels offer high conversion efficiency and excellent environmental resistance, allowing you to maximize the available solar energy. This helps to increase the income of families and companies.
