The beginner''s guide to solar energy: Solar 101

Solar Industry Growth and AffordabilitySolar Energy, Power, and IrradianceSolar Resource of A RooftopSolar panels convert the energy of photons, or light particles, from the sun into electricity. Photovoltaic devices, such as solar panels, permit the incoming photons to transfer their energy to electrons. These energized electrons begin to flow, creating an electric current. We use the terms irradiance or insolation to refer to the power density o...See more on aurorasolar cseindia [PDF]
