Photovoltaic solar energy
Photovoltaic solar energy is a technology that generates direct current by means of sunlight. This electricity generation is achieved by means of what is known as the photovoltaic effect.
In the photovoltaic effect, solar radiation excites electrons in a semiconductor device. This generates a small potential difference which, due to the series connection of the photovoltaic devices, is multiplied to achieve large potential differences. If you are interested in learning more about this point Origenes*.

Applications
There are two types of solar photovoltaic installations:
- Off-grid photovoltaic systems: Ideal for remote locations where there is no electricity distribution network; such as country houses, mountain refuges, water pumping stations...
- Grid-connected photovoltaic systems: Given that the electricity distribution companies are obliged by law to buy the energy, it is ideal for use in any type of place, such as the roofs of houses, factories, etc.
Advantages of photovoltaic solar energy
The installation of photovoltaic panels to obtain electrical energy is an option that more and more people are opting for, since as technology advances it offers greater guarantees at more affordable prices, thus shortening the amortisation time of the installations.
How photovoltaic solar energy works
Components of the photovoltaic solar system
-
Photovoltaic modules.
This is a fundamental element, as its mission is to capture the incident solar energy and generate electricity.
These modules are made up of the following elements:
– Solar cells or photovoltaic cells made of silicon or other materials.
– Outer coating, usually made of glass for better collection.
– Encapsulating material, which protects the cells.
– Back coating. This is usually glass and serves as protection for the module.
– Electrical connections. Located on the back of the module, they must be accessible.
– Metallic frame, made of steel or aluminum to enclose the whole assembly. - Batteries or accumulators. The need for energy does not always coincide with the time it is obtained from the sun, in order to be able to offer this energy it is necessary to have an accumulation system
- Regulator. It is the equipment that controls the charge and discharge processes of the battery...
- Inverter. It is the system that adapts the current generated in the modules to the consumption conditions of the different electrical loads.
-
Other elements. Necessary for the safety and control of the installation, such as:
– Wiring
– Connections
– Protections
– Monitoring and control
