How Does Solar Works
When sunlight hits the PV cells in a solar panel, electrons are knocked loose and move around. These loose electrons can be captured so they move in the same direction around a circuit. An electric current is formed by this flow of electrons in the same direction.
​
By connecting many PV cells to each other in a panel and wiring a number of panels together (called an array), a flow of electrons is created and produces direct current (DC) electricity. The more panels in an array, the more electricity is made.
In our homes and businesses we use 240 volt alternating current (AC) electricity. Therefore, a box called an inverter – usually no bigger than your average shopping basket – is used to convert the DC electricity to AC so it can be used in your premises.
