FAQ

How does the solar cell work in terms of photochemical conversion?
The photovoltaic cell module is capable of generating electromotive force when light is irradiated to obtain energy.
Yes, solar cells can be used for portable devices. They are commonly used in small electronic gadgets such as smartphones, tablets, and portable chargers to harness solar energy and convert it into electrical power. This enables the devices to be charged or powered by sunlight, making them convenient and environmentally-friendly options for on-the-go usage.
The most common type of solar cell is the silicon-based solar cell.
How to explain to students how the solar cells are made?
The best way to explain that to students is to take them to a solar cells workstation if possibile.
The maximum efficiency that a solar cell can achieve is known as the Shockley-Queisser limit, which is approximately 33.7%. However, in practical applications, the efficiency of commercial solar cells typically ranges between 15-22%.
Yes, solar cells can be used in underwater vehicles or submarines as a source of renewable energy. However, their efficiency can be significantly reduced due to the limited amount of sunlight that reaches underwater. Nonetheless, advancements in solar cell technology are being made to optimize their performance in such environments.
Solar cells play a crucial role in reducing carbon emissions by harnessing the power of sunlight to generate clean and renewable electricity. By converting solar energy into electricity, solar cells eliminate the need for fossil fuel combustion, which is a major source of carbon emissions. This sustainable energy source helps to reduce our reliance on carbon-intensive power generation methods, thus mitigating the greenhouse gas emissions responsible for climate change.
Solar cells can significantly increase the value of a property. They not only provide a reliable and sustainable source of energy, but also reduce electricity bills, making the property more attractive to potential buyers. Additionally, solar panels are seen as a valuable asset that can generate income through net metering or feed-in tariffs, further increasing the property's value.
