2. Solar energy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_energy

   Solar power, also known as solar electricity, is the conversion of energy from sunlight into electricity, either directly using photovoltaics (PV) or indirectly using concentrated solar power. Solar panels use the photovoltaic effect to convert light into an electric current. [63] Concentrated solar power systems use lenses or mirrors and solar ...

   Ubiquitous Energy is a transparent solar technology company headquartered in Redwood City, California, which is located within Silicon Valley. Ubiquitous Energy designs and develops transparent solar technology for windows, electronics, and other applications. The company’s transparent solar technology is branded as UE Power™.

4. Concentrated solar power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concentrated_solar_power

   A solar power tower consists of an array of dual-axis tracking reflectors that concentrate sunlight on a central receiver atop a tower; the receiver contains a heat-transfer fluid, which can consist of water-steam or molten salt. Optically a solar power tower is the same as a circular Fresnel reflector.

6. Solar panel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_panel

   Performing maximum power point tracking (MPPT), a solar inverter samples the output (I-V curve) from the solar cell and applies the proper electrical load to obtain maximum power. An AC ( alternating current ) solar panel has a small DC to AC microinverter on the back and produces AC power with no external DC connector .

7. Photovoltaics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photovoltaics

   A photovoltaic system, or solar PV system is a power system designed to supply usable solar power by means of photovoltaics. It consists of an arrangement of several components, including solar panels to absorb and directly convert sunlight into electricity, a solar inverter to change the electric current from DC to AC, as well as mounting ...
