PV PANELS MANUFACTURING PLANT
[CODE NO. 3226]  

 
Solar Panels are in general Silicon made Rectangular Shaped Glass Covered Products which Produce Electricity when exposed to the Sun. These Panels produce Direct Current (DC) Electricity which has to be converted by a  Solar Inverter to Alternating Current (AC) Electricity to be used by Consumers Solar PV  panel refers to a panel designed to absorb the sun's rays as a source of energy for generating electricity.

A photovoltaic (in short PV) module is a packaged, connect assembly of typically 6×10 solar cells. Solar Photovoltaic panels constitute the solar array of a photovoltaic system that generates and supplies solar electricity in commercial and residential applications. Each module is rated by its DC output power under standard test conditions, and typically ranges from 100 to 365 watts A single solar module can produce only a limited amount of power; most installations contain multiple modules. A photovoltaic system typically includes a panel or an array of solar modules, a solar inverter, and sometimes a battery and/or solar tracker and interconnection wiring. The price of solar power, together with batteries for storage, has continued to fall so that in many countries it is cheaper than ordinary fossil fuel electricity from the grid (there is "grid parity")., Solar panel refers to a panel designed to absorb the sun's rays as a source of energy for generating electricity or heating.

Solar Cell

A photovoltaic cell is a specialized semiconductor diode electronic device that converts light energy into electrical energy.


Solar Cell converts light energy into the electrical energy. A solar cell is basically a p-n junction diode. It utilizes photovoltaic effect to convert light energy into electrical energy.

Construction of Solar Cell

Although this is basically a junction diode, but constructionally it is little bit different form conventional p-n junction diode. A very thin layer of p-type semiconductor is grown on a relatively thicker n-type semiconductor. We provide few finer electrodes on the top of the p-type semiconductor layer. These electrodes do not obstruct light to reach the thin p-type layer. Just below the p-type layer there is a p-n junction. We also provide a current collecting electrode at the bottom of the n-type layer. We encapsulate the entire assembly by thin glass to protect the solar cell from any mechanical shock.
