Question

What are the differences between solar cell and solar collectors​

Answer 1

The difference between solar cells and solar panels. Solar cells and solar panels are both integral, and closely related, parts of a solar energy system. ... Solar cells contain all the parts necessary to convert sunlight to electricity. Solar panels combine and direct all of that energy output.

Answer 2

solar collector--A solar thermal collector collects heat by absorbing sunlight. The term "solar collector" commonly refers to solar hot water panels, but may refer to installations such as solar parabolic troughs and solar towers; or basic installations such as solar air heaters.

solar cell--A solar cell, or photovoltaic cell, is an electrical device that converts the energy of light directly into electricity by the photovoltaic effect, which is a physical and chemical phenomenon.
