solar energy system
A solar energy system is a sophisticated setup designed to convert sunlight into usable electricity through photovoltaic cells. Its main functions include capturing sunlight, converting it into direct current (DC), and then transforming it into alternating current (AC) suitable for residential and commercial use. Technological features of a solar energy system include solar panels made of high-efficiency silicon cells, inverters to convert DC to AC, and sometimes batteries for energy storage. Applications are widespread, from powering homes and businesses to contributing to the electrical grid and supporting remote, off-grid communities.
