Electricity generation
The easiest way to convert solar energy into electrical energy is to use solar batteries. Solar battery/element is a device which converts the energy emitted by the sun (light) directly into electrical energy. The conversion of solar energy into electricity is enabled by photovoltaic process within the solar battery, otherwise known as the photovoltaic effect. This process proceeds at the time of junction between different structures of electrical semiconductors when photovoltaic device, i.e. battery, is under the influence of sunlight. During photovoltaic process the electrical semiconductor carries out the role of energy receiver.
AC - alternating current. DC - direct current.
