A solar power system is composed of several key components that work together to convert sunlight into usable electrical energy.
Solar Panels (Photovoltaic Panels)
Solar panels are the primary component that captures sunlight and converts it into direct current (DC) electricity using photovoltaic (PV) cells. There are various types of solar panels, including monocrystalline, polycrystalline, and thin-film, each with different efficiency levels and costs.
Inverter
The inverter converts the DC electricity generated by the solar panels into alternating current (AC) electricity, which is the standard used by most household appliances and the electrical grid.
