Solar Power Plant

Solar power is the conversion of sunlight into electricity, either directly using photovoltaics (PV), or indirectly using concentrated solar power (CSP). Concentrated solar power systems use lenses or mirrors and tracking systems to focus a large area of sunlight into a small beam. Photovoltaics convert light into an electric current using the photovoltaic effect.

The heart of a photovoltaic solar system is the solar array. Made up of multiple panels, this array absorbs the energy of sunlight and converts this energy into electrical energy. The array is mounted on a frame of the roof, which provides the correct aspect and elevation for the array so that the maximum amount of available sunlight is received and converted into electricity.
