A solar PV system consists Solar PV systems convert solar energy into direct current electricity using solar cells, which are normally made by semiconducting materials. Solar PV systems can be installed on rooftop areas of residential, commercial and industrial buildings.
Advantages
Since there are large amount of energy simply coming from sun’s rays, scarcity is not a concern at all. This can be a solution to the scarcity of other energy sources, especially sources originating from fossil fuels.
Solar radiation does not emit any type of pollution so therefore it lacks any CO2 emissions.
Solar radiation energy is available anywhere so regardless of location, solar energy can be generated anywhere in a decentralized way (such as rooftop panels). This would also mean that the losses occurring due to the transmission of energy is being reduced.
Implementing solar PV technology can be modular so the size of PV system can be increased when the need for electricity increases.
