Solar Energy Power Generation and How it Works

Whether you are wondering about the beautiful physics behind solar power generation or looking for an easy way to implant Solar panels for power generation to avoid costly electricity, well in both cases you are lucky. We have got you covered. Tighten your seatbelts, we are going to cross the speed limit.

Quick Facts
  • The power density of the sun's radiation on the surface is approximately 1.4 kW/m2
  • Photosynthesis uses only .023% of the energy that reaches the surface of the earth.
  • The Sun delivers more energy to Earth in an hour than we use in a year from fossil, nuclear and all renewable sources combined


Physics Behind Solar Power Generation 

The beauty of physics doesn't lie in its power, rather it is the nature itself engraved into it. With that said, the story begins with a brilliant scientist, Russell Ohl, who received Nobel Prize for his discovery of p-n junction and photovoltaic effects in silicon that leads to the development of junction and solar cells, hey wait, what are those things? Yes, a p-n junction is like the fused small connection between electrons acting as negative majority charge carriers and holes acting as positive majority charge carriers, on their connect there is small neutral zone formed that is called a p-n junction. And now what is the photoVoltaic effect? It is this production of voltage when a suitable photon strikes a p-n junction.

So basically, here, there are only 2 more questions left unanswered. The first and kind of most important one, what does it mean by a suitable photon? By suitable proton, a proton carrying equal to or more than the potential energy of target electron, or in simple words proton must be capable of ionization otherwise there would be no photoVoltaic effect.

And the second, but the most interesting question, what does exactly happens on the successful collision of a photon? So when a photon collides with the p-n junction, which you remember from the above discussion, is a neutral atoms zone, it ejects out an electron and consistent successful collisions constitute a source of new current which is actually working on the law of conservation of energy, there it is this energy conversion of heat into electricity.

Well if you are thinking of using Solar Panels as a replacement to your home general electricity, they can serve as wonderful choice, they are cost-effective, handy and reliable. They come in every size and with the right configuration, solar panels can generate enough electricity in the day time to run your fans, computers, refrigerators, and even air conditioners. There are standard solar panels sizes, and one plate is capable of generating 320 watts constantly, with half rooftop, they can pretty much hold the home bright for long after you go to sleep.
