Solar PV systems generate electricity by absorbing sunlight and using that light energy to create an electrical current. There are many photovoltaic cells within a single solar module, and the current created by all of the cells together adds up to enough electricity to help power. . A photovoltaic (PV) cell, commonly called a solar cell, is a nonmechanical device that converts sunlight directly into electricity. Some PV cells can convert artificial light into electricity. Sunlight is composed of photons, or particles of solar energy. The two dissimilar semiconductors possess a natural difference in electric potential (voltage), which causes the electrons to flow through the external circuit, supplying power to the load. Way out in space there's a gargantuan ball made up of gas, mostly helium and hydrogen.
