What is solar photovoltaic (PV) power generation?
Solar photovoltaic (PV) power generation is the process of converting energy from the sun into electricity using solar panels. Solar panels, also called PV panels, are combined into arrays in a PV system. PV systems can also be installed in grid-connected or off-grid (stand-alone) configurations.
What is a solar photovoltaic system?
A solar photovoltaic system or PV system is an electricity generation system with a combination of various components such as PV panels, inverter, battery, mounting structures, etc. Nowadays, of the various renewable energy technologies available, PV is one of the fastest-growing renewable energy options.
What is a photovoltaic (PV) cell?
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.
How a photovoltaic system is integrated with a utility grid?
A basic photovoltaic system integrated with utility grid is shown in Fig. 2. The PV array converts the solar energy to dc power, which is directly dependent on insolation. Blocking diode facilitates the array generated power to flow only towards the power conditioner.
Why are photovoltaic systems a good choice in remote areas?
For the generation of electricity in far flung area at reasonable price, sizing of the power supply system plays an important role. Photovoltaic systems and some other renewable energy systems are, therefore, an excellent choices in remote areas for low to medium power levels, because of easy scaling of the input power source , .
What are the different types of photovoltaic systems?
Photovoltaic system may be categorized as stand-alone photovoltaic system, photovoltaic system for vehicle applications (solar vehicles), grid-connected photovoltaic system and building systems. The stand-alone system does not supply power to the grid.
