2. Photovoltaic system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photovoltaic_system

   A photovoltaic system, also called a PV system or solar power system, is an electric power system designed to supply usable solar power by means of photovoltaics.It consists of an arrangement of several components, including solar panels to absorb and convert sunlight into electricity, a solar inverter to convert the output from direct to alternating current, as well as mounting, cabling, and ...

3. Applications of photovoltaics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Applications_of_photovoltaics

   A large range of different applications can be solar powered such as music players, fans, portable lamps, security lights, solar lighting kits, solar lanterns and street light (see below), phone chargers, radios, or even small, seven-inch LCD televisions, that run on less than ten watts.

4. Microgeneration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microgeneration

   Microgeneration technologies include small-scale wind turbines, micro hydro, solar PV systems, microbial fuel cells, ground source heat pumps, and micro combined heat and power installations. [1] These technologies are often combined to form a hybrid power solution that can offer superior performance and lower cost than a system based on one ...

5. Small Differences Are Magnified in Solar

   The solar industry can be measured by two main criteria: module efficiency and cost per watt. Without one, the other is useless, because they interact to define a company's competitive position.

6. Concentrator photovoltaics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concentrator_photovoltaics

   Though the cost of multi-junction solar cells is roughly 100 times that of conventional silicon cells of the same area, the small cell area employed makes the relative costs of cells in each system comparable and the system economics favor the multi-junction cells. Multi-junction cell efficiency has now reached 44% in production cells.

7. Solar panel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_panel

   Solar panels are also known as solar cell panels, solar electric panels, or PV modules. Solar panels are usually arranged in groups called arrays or systems . A photovoltaic system consists of one or more solar panels, an inverter that converts DC electricity to alternating current (AC) electricity, and sometimes other components such as ...
