Solar panels are made out of photovoltaic cells that convert the sun’s energy into electricity.
Photovoltaic cells are sandwiched between layers of semi-conducting materials such as silicon. Each layer has different electronic properties that energise when hit by photons from sunlight, creating an electric field. This is known as the photoelectric effect – and it’s this that creates the current needed to produce electricity.
Solar panels generate a direct current of electricity. This is then passed through an inverter to convert it into an alternating current, which can be fed into the National Grid or used by the home or business the solar panels are attached to
Solar panels react to the visible light spectrum. This means, if it’s light enough to see, there’s enough light for them to start generating electricity. But the stronger the sunlight, the more power solar panels will generate.
Absolutely, the safer, quicker and more efficient way is to have a electric vehicle charger fitted
In short, it depends on the vehicle and the electricity tariff. However electric vehicle are drastically cheaper than petrol/ diesel vehicles. A typical petrol/ diesel car costs in the region of £2,000-£3,000 per year to run compared to an electrical vehicle of approx. £650-£1,500 per year.
