Solar PV (Photovoltaic) Panels or Modules are made from a number of solar cells that convert solar radiation into electricity. The PV cell consists of one or two layers of a semi conducting material, usually silicon. When light shines on the cell it creates an electric field across the layers, causing electricity to flow. The greater the intensity of the light, the greater the flow of electricity.
Solar Water Heating Panel or Collector may be a flat panel, or a series of vacuum tubes, in both cases it contains a heating fluid which is warmed by the sun's rays, and then pumped through a heat exchange coil in the hot water tank. As this coil warms up, it transfers the heat to the water in the tank. An expansion vessel built into the system allows for any expansion or contraction of the heating fluid as it warms and cools.
