Working of Solar PV (Solar Cells)
RV College of
Engineering Go, Change the World

 These cells basically work on Layers of solar cells


the “Principle of Photovoltaic
Effect”
 Each solar cell contains both
positively and negatively
charged semiconductors, which
create an electrical field.
 When energy from sunlight is
absorbed in the form of photons,
that electrical field forces
electrons to flow towards the
metal plates, thus leading to the
flow of electric current.
Working of Solar PV (Solar Cells)

The generated electricity from the can be further used in the following two
different ways.
1) Grid System 2) Stand-Alone System

Results & Discussions
RV College of
Engineering Go, Change the World

 As far these Inorganic Solar PV are concerned, they are more


efficient and durable as well
 And as price of these cells is decreasing gradually, they may be the
brilliant option for electricity generation in the large scale
 These cells work on the Principle of Photovoltaic Effect
 If these are connected to the national grid, the user/owner may
decrease his electricity bills as well
 Energy generation by these PV can be used widely due to it’s eco-
friendly nature
