Answer:

Solar panels are devices that convert light into electricity. They are called "solar" panels because most of the time, the most powerful source of light available is the Sun, called Sol by astronomers. Some scientists call them photovoltaics which means, basically, "light-electricity."

How does it works :

Simply put, a solar panel works by allowing photons, or particles of light, to knock electrons free from atoms, generating a flow of electricity. Solar panels actually comprise many, smaller units called photovoltaic cells. (Photovoltaic simply means they convert sunlight into electricity.

Types of solar panel :

There are 3 types of technology utilized in the solar panels available on the market today: monocrystalline, polycrystalline, and thin film amorphous. As the names suggest, monocrystalline and polycrystalline are both types of solar cells that are made from crystalline silicon.
